 Great album August 16, 2007
The album in whole is really good if you like blues rock with a twist of psychedelic theme to it. The song "Welcome to my Room" is the reason I bought it, but I soon fell in love with the chorus of "Gabe". It is one of those albums that you can listen to over and over, day after day.
Back to 1970, seriously? August 1, 2007
When I first heard this album, I had to double check and make sure that it was a 2007 release, and not a 1972 release. Yes this band sounds exactly like they came out of the Vietnam War era. That's not a bad thing. The music here is still fresh, but I'm not sure if the band ever is able to establish their own sound. By naming themselves Vietnam and playing music from that era, the band has doomed their self-titled album. It's good, but I'm still wondering why this band was born in the wrong decade.

Interesting...I like the hippie 70s influence, although it is a little mellow for my taste. Decent overall.

Got this after reading the article in rolling stone. Was turned off at first by the fact that it appeared that they are behind their time. Then i came to appreciate their uniqueness and musicianship. The guitar work was not phenominal, but it was impressive. The lyrics are mainly political/metaphorical, tho nothing that hasnt been done before. Other lyrics are about living hard and being anti-establishment. They are blues/rock based, laid back, and fluid. Most songs are written around guitar tho one has orchestra (eww, stripped down is best). They have a unique, easy going sound that revolves around hazy and loose sounding guitar. Very nice.
They are more than a hippie-revival band and are rather sophisticated for coming from a american blues sound. Its really a shame that they will never get big in the new pretty-boy emo music scene. Tho they wont be famous, they seem to get satisfaction from saying "F-- you" to the polished corporate-dominated music industry, and i appreciate that more than anything.
Please buy this and support them, they deserve the money for going against the times. Hope they find success somehow.
