Album Notes On this enhanced version of their full-length debut, Brooklyn-based popsters the Honorary Title add to their collection of listener-friendly material with outtakes and alternate versions of tracks like "The Smoking Pose" and "Bridge and Tunnel." The band's forte is performing attractively homespun-sounding vignettes of workaday angst, like "Snow Day" and the title track; the production is suitably lo-fi, Jarrod Borbel's vocals are tunefully emotive, and his colleague Aaron Kamstra's keyboards provide just the right post-modern setting for this simply presented yet effective collection. This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. The Honorary Title: Jon Wiley, Jarrod Gorbel (vocals, guitar); Aaron Kamstra (piano, keyboards, bass guitar); Adam Boyd (drums).

Editorial Reviews Gorbel's lyrics are often more confessional than anything Chris Carrabba bleats out, and his delivery is deftly accented by Kamstra's dynamic orchestration. CMJ
3 stars out of 5 - [The] songs emphasize the draining process of forcing a melody and words to communicate feelings and observations. It's definitely a style, and on this debut, the Honorary Title do it with nerve and verve. Rolling Stone
