verve pipe cd Very happy with my purchase!. The Verve Pipe CD was in great shape! Shipping was quick.
ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS OF ALL TIME
Every song is incredibly with amazing lyrics and melodies. This album is perfect from start to finish. A MUST HAVE.
Solid from start to finish!
They'd just released their major label debut, Villains, the previous month and the song Photograph was starting to get some serious airplay (at least in their native Michigan, where I was attending college). In April 1996, my freshman year of college, Verve Pipe performed live. I purchased Villains and later their Indie label debut EP , I've Suffered A Head Injury and their 2nd release, Pop Smear. Other than a few tracks I really didn't get what all the fuss was about.
For the next few years I was content to ignore them. Their next eponymous release wasn't even a blip on my radar in 1999. Then in 2002, I stumbled upon one of the songs from Underneath and I had to hear more.
At a small out of the way music store in an out of the way strip mall in Elyria, Ohio I picked up a used copy of Underneath-- and the money was very well spent. Unlike their other albums which were lukewarm at best, Underneath was a prize. One of those rare CDs with not a bad track on it, a solid effort from start to finish.
Now when I put this CD on, I'm transported back to cool spring and summer nights of solitude as I was trying to find my way back to me after getting lost somewhere along the way a few months before. Along with Dream Theater's Awake album this CD was my emotional road map that led me back to the person I'd somehow forgotten I was.

Great CD!
Good words, good music, what else could be better!?!.
Way more than I expected!!!
This is hands down the best work for BVA. Right off from track one I was blown away. It is sad to see a band of this caliber split up, but none the less, "miles away" and "medicate" are two the most lyricly interesting songs on the cd. I think that it will be a long time till we see another album of this magnitude.
