"Dakota Moon's debut CD from 1998 sounds amazingly fresh 7 years later. The musicianship is stellar and the harmonies touch the sky! The opener "Another Day Goes By" is one of the most addictive tracks with its upbeat message and joyful chorus, "I want to be an eagle soaring high, sign my name across the sky; I gotta break free before I die, before another day goes by." "Snow In July" has Ty Taylor on lead vocals and sets a delicious groove in this breakup song guaranteed to set your toe tapping, "I thought that everything was fine but now you're turning on a dime & moving on." "She Knows" is an excellent track with Malloy's percussion giving a romantic march beat juxtaposed with the lads' soaring harmonies. "We Won't Be Alone Tonight" is also a great upbeat track with Dakota Moon's cool smooth vocal approach. The slow weeper "Black Moon Day" is a gorgeous melody with cello giving it a somber depth. "Dakota Moon" is a stunning debut whose musical quality should keep it from fading. Enjoy!"
Not what i expected

"I learned of Ty Taylor from watching Rockstar INXS, and based on the reviews i was expecting an album of more of a rock persuasion. This is NOT a rock album. This is more of an r&b album, it is mellow music. There is no doubt that the band has talent, and it is easy to listen to. But if like me, you were looking for something that displayed Ty Taylor's rock ability, this is probably not the album for you. To me it has a bit of a boy band feel, ballads and harmoies. It is a good album, but not what i expected and if i had actually heard the album before hand i probably would have opted for something else."
Superb................!

"Ohh my god =), this is brilliant. Even though i have had their album (self titled) for some years now... was released in 1998.. and maybe a little later in europe (denmark) maybe late 1999.. Then i have had it since then, i loved/love this album SOOO freaking much , that i had to go buy 2 copies more =).. Don't know why but i do that when i hear something as beautiful as what these guys have come out with (then) it's stunning, superb and simply brilliant.. Actually i'd wish they would release a dvd concert along with all of their music videos, and i would defenetly go and buy it, if not maybe several =) copies. Please come visit denmark some day.... You are one of my top 5 groups of all time..
I've never stopped listening to songs like ANOTHER DAY GOES BY and SWEET LADY JANE, and also SING YOU TO SLEEP. Those are my all time favorite, even my mom (49 now) and Myself i'm 23), loves the songs/you guys, so everybody, go buy this album NOOOOW !!
Thanks from Mads a true everlasting fan from Denmark... =)"
