undecided.
I like Hothouse flowers for reason I hate Corporate rock bands like U2, REM, Oasis, Beck etc. . . Because they do it for the love of music, and enjoyment not to prove something, change the world, or be force.
I LOVED "SONGS from the rain", it's a brillant cd with exception of one or two songs. I bought People when it came out and Home.

I like hothouse flowers like JAMES,Cowboy Junkies,old Crowded house and A-ha(see ne release) and not because they sound like U2 and corporate sounding. THEY sound ALIVE. (ok theys sound more Van morrison)

I love listening to Hothouse flowers because they never sound dated unlike other performers, based on traditional intruments rather than images or style/sounds. Something you can always go back to because it sound freash.


A Strong Return From A Lost Band
However, their time off has changed them. After not having a new Hothouse Flowers album for several years, it's nice to discover that these guys haven't forgotten how to play. Nowhere are the sounds that make "Songs from the Rain" the snoozer that it is. Instead, the band has shed two members and adopted a harder edge to their music. At times, they veer dangerously close to U2 territory (especially on the title track, which could've come off of "Achtung Baby"). But, songs like Learning to Walk and Turn Up the Reverb have a unique energy that use to only be evident in the band's live performances. Overall, the album is a welcome reminder that these guys still have a lot of music in them.
