Strong lead vocalist who really sells the song with conviction. Good use of backing vocals which are used just in the right places. Great lyrics which have a poetic quality. The musicianship is spot on. Great drum sound and performance. Excellent sound quality. Catchy song. Shades of U2 about the song. <\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>I&#8217;ve marked down the instrumentation and arrangement because the guitar arpeggios build tension in the verses but that tension is never truly released because the arpeggios continue into the choruses. In other words I would expect more differentiation in terms of arrangement and instrumentation between the verses and the choruses to give release to that tension. The choruses are catchy and anthemic, which the vocalist delivers, but the instrumentation behind him needs more oomph in my opinion.      <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Simpson-Mancine ProductionsSong: Line in the SandReviewer: David JamesPositive Comments: I love the sparse intro.
