for the past couple of days i've been listening to jm's latest, "battle studies". a lot of people have criticized this cd saying stuff like 'he sold out to pop with this album' or that 'this cd just doesn't compare at all to continuum'. meh, i guess people will always have their opinions.

for me, what impresses me the most is the fact that this album is so different from his last one (continuum), but it still sounds so...him. i think that's the mark of a great and super versatile musician who is just so damn good. bottom line: i think the battle studies cd is commendable and i like it.

favourite tracks off this one include 'heartbreak warfare', 'who says', and 'assassin'.

man, i could listen to him sing forever. it doesn't hurt that he's been looking less like a sick ghost these days either, haha. :)
