Free Music Notes for So Many NightsFree Music Review: So Many Nights..again. Hit: 4 StarsSo Many Nights
Personally, my favorite albums were the first three. Although I felt that this album was full of energy, it was different. It was much more fast paced, and movement. Either way, it was quite excellant, and it certainly is a unique sound from the previous three.
Top songs for me:
1) Lonely Moon
2) Won't be Afraid
3) So Many Nights
4) Wanted to write you a Love Song
5) The Darkness
6) Fishies/Til the ocean takes us all.

Free Music Review: Fabulous Hit: 5 StarsThese guys continue to amaze me with their talent. We saw them live at the St. Basilica Block Party in Minneapolis and they are a highly talented group of musicians. This CD comes in second to their prior CD "Two Shoes". Highly recommended.
Free Music Review: They keep getting better Hit: 5 Stars Beware the impulsive dancing caused by this CD may create an embarrassing moment for you also!! It forced my neighbors to by blinds.
Free Music Review: Interesting progression Hit: 4 StarsMost fans (reading this review) will probably have gotten their Cat Empire fix from the Two Shoes album. I feel that Two Shoes is the backbone of The Cat Empire, in sound and musicianship. Since then, they've gotten a little more subtle. Many of the songs on "So Many Nights" seem to lack the passion that you might feel from a song like Two Shoes, The Lost Song, How to Explain, The Night That Never End, etc. The quirkiness seems to have been smoothed out somewhere, but if you're like me, then you LOVED The Cat Empire for their quirkiness. C'mon, The Car Song, In My Pocket, The Chariot, Down at the 303, etc.
What we're left with is a bit of strangeness (not so much quirkiness), and an album almost full of songs similar to Luck Song from "Cities." Old fan favorites will probably be: So Many Nights, Fishies, and Till the Ocean Takes Us All. If you're a lyric-focused person, you might find quite a few good things in this album.
Free Music Review: A different direction, but the same amazing quality! Hit: 5 StarsThe Cat Empire are one of the best bands out there. All of their albums have gone platinum (some multiple) in Australia...it's criminal that they are not better known in the us. This album continues their streak of genius material. However, this time they have more laidback, smokey vibe going on for them. This album, right down to the artwork is amazing! The addition of a lot of strings on this album (particularly breathtaking on "Panama") is a welcomed new twist. This band is continuing to switch up their sound, while still keeping their unique sound.
