But they haven't done so in a way that would make me notice them over any other group. The overall group sound is quite nice. It can be really full and rich, with some good support from all ranges, but it gets thinned out occasionally. Tuning issues come and go, but come often enough to detract from the really nice sound that The Pitchforks can get.
Soloists are sometimes passable, sometimes pretty good.
Some arrangements are decently interesting, and some sound like the same arrangement your favorite college's oldest all-male group has been keeping around for too many years. None of their strengths are evident consistently throughout the album, and none of their weaknesses are always in effect. Thank You , with a good arrangement and a nice breakdown, but the solo just doesn't quite cut it. The only negative comment I have about all of the tracks on the CD is that The Pitchforks don't change dynamics much, if at all. They could stand to get so much more out of their quiet moments, and they could benefit from really letting it all out for some bigger moments.
