Nice songs, shame about the "crazy" band name.

Oops, no, my mistake - the music's not very good either. 'You're A God' is truly the sound of a hundred interchangeable American college rock bands. Quiet verses, noisy chorus with a slim hookline, vaguely deep lyrics and growly, abrasive vocals. Apparently, Vertical Horizon (wow! A vertical horizon…, that just couldn't be!) have quite a following at home.

And they've supported Huey Lewis on tour. Make of that what you will.
