 More great music from 3rd EB December 14, 2008
Awesome stuff from a truly underrated band. Give it a purchase - how can you loose with the price. you won't regret it. Then get more from this band.
A 'Thank You Gift' For The Fans December 5, 2008
These three tracks are already familiar to most Third Eye Blind fans. As the band has been trying them out at concerts for almost a year now. It is good to hear them in their finalized versions and certainly creates a sense of wanting for the whole album. Stephan Jenkins has become an incredible music producer over the years but what impresses me the most is the fact that he let the fans mix their most unique song (NonDairy Creamer)and has never looked back. Ultimately that is what these guys are all about, the fans. Which is really the whole purpose for this EP, it's a sort of thank you present for the undying loyalty that continues to humble the band to this day.
 1 great song, 1 so-so song, and 1 really bad song November 25, 2008

I've been a big 3eb fan since their debut album first came out and saw them in a small club of 100 people before semi-charmed life hit the radio. Even though they've faltered a bit with each release, you can still hear gems and hints of the magic they had on that first CD.
They do so here with the second song, Red Star. Great music, really good lyrics. Easily the best song here and sounds like a classic 3eb song.
The 3rd song, Why Can't You Be, appears to be a live acoustic track. SOunds like some of the mellower songs from the Blue CD. A tinge of Deep Inside of You. A decent song.
The first song, non-dairy creamer, is trash. Perhaps the worst opening line of a song ever "They call it KFC cause it not really chicken..."? WTF? Second worst Jenkins lyric even behind the "Tater Tots" line on Out of the Vein. The "Young Gay Repulicans" chorus with the background vocals is pretty bad also. The background singer sounds like Kermit the Frog. Is that Tony F? SHows they still miss their original guitarist KC.
3EB shows they still have some magic left in them and it is good to hear som new tunes from them. As a whole, just like the Out of the Vein CD, this isn't the strongest group of songs.
Solid November 23, 2008
Three solid songs from Third Eye Blind, especially Red Star. Now I can't wait for the album! However, I do wish that it came with the video as well.
Greatness November 21, 2008
Jenkins said in an interview that all that was left after there old record company went defunct was the lyrics. This EP proves that once again. Red Star has been a very popular tour song for the past few years. Non-Dairy Creamer despite being very political, can also represent society in general. As with most good music, especially Third Eye Blind, you can take the lyrics of this song many ways. It does not surprise me at all that they picked this song to be on this Album. I believe they wanted to get this released before the election but that did not happen. The final song is great. Again, awesome lyrics. This EP represents a good look at what is to come.
