| They have songs up now? When you messaged me about them the other day, I did not see any. I'll let you know what I think after I get a chance to listen. But, if Matt Harding is playing guitar, it's got to be good. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| Hmm not sure what to think at first listen. There are 3 songs listed but for some reason I can only listen to the 1st and 3rd. The songs certainly don't sound like a carbon copy of the old 80's tunes Matt did before. I don't hear any hooks (and that is always a downer), and I really wish he would find a good singer. I will probably have to listen a few more times to be sure, but at first listen I'm not too crazy about it. _________________ "I used to be indecisive.......... Now I'm not sure."

| Sounds pretty good to me! Classic Apostle! I think Matt does good with singing. I wonder if he chose to do his own vocals due to working with David McKee on the final Apostle project. Rumor has it that it was not a pleasant experience for any of the members of Apostle during that time. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| For me the same thought Classic Apostle. When you are an Apostle fan you like The Jacob's Ladder too.
The samples are on the MySpace page since yesterday.
Matt Harding: Guitar and lead vocals.
Jacob Harding: Bass Guitar,
Keith Gardner. Drums.
I really like The Jacob's Ladder. And think to order the CD. |

| I'm definitely ordering the CD. I'm heading to the Post Office to get a money order right now. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| It's very frustrating you only can use a money order to get this CD. Since it's not possible for me to send a money order to the band it means no The Jacob's Ladder CD for me. I contacted the band about my money order problem, but haven't gotten a reply. |

| They may be working on getting their stuff up at CD Baby or some other online retailer.

| After a few listens, I must say that I am not as impressed as I thought. The songs are cool, but there are some issues with the overall mix. I know--I'm getting too picky!
If you like the clips on Myspace, then get the CD. Don't look for it to become a favorite. But, it is a decent listen. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| Yes. They sounded like demos. They were supposed too! But, this is meant to be professionally done CD that sounds like those demos. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| That is the problem with bands that only exist on MySpace- unless you also have a MySpace account (which I do not) then you cannot contact them. The very least that "MySpace bands" could do is post an e-mail address at their page. |

Good idea. It's time that I do something like that... |
