CDP get pissed off when you refer to their ages, because when they started out that was their ‘thing. If they keep phoning in sub-Libsian jangle-pop like this then they’re going to have to find a new gimmick like, say, releasing two albums in a year. If they want to be treated like adults they’ll have to release something, y’know, gooder.

I think you need to start hiring better people to review.

How ironic that such a childish review refers to be treated like an adult!

CDP are great, The Race is one of the best songs ive heard in ages, The next untouchable is a great song and CDP deserve more of a review. Why has there only been 1 paragraph written? He doesnt deserve pay for that. This album should be 8/10 btw.

Personally, i thought "the colourful life" was quite a decent record. O.k, so it wasn't groundbreaking, it wasn't huge, but it was solid. I have brought better records, and i have brought worse. Either way, deserves a proper review. Y'know, like one a bit "gooder". Definetly deserved better than 5/10

I've bought better albums. I still like them though it's not an album i respect for the musical abilty or dedication. It's an album i respect because it's easy to listen to and i never once wanted to press skip.
