 1. I Hate Milk
 2. World Cup Fever
 3. Seabird
 4. Special Angel
 5. Afternoon Train
 6. Dolphin Expressway
 7. Sweet as a Candybar
 8. You Sweet Little Heartbreaker

10. Bubble Shield
11. Event Horizon
12. Definitely Beachy
13. Reprise

Yes! Yes! Yes! Air Miami kick ass! Who would have known that members of
Unrest were capable of writing real songs? You Unrest people...bleagh. I
know you all think Air Miami suck: I think they ROCK. All the cool shit
you got with Unrest, plus real songs, cool songs, pretty songs, attitude,
fun songs, new wave songs, party songs, more attitude, and no stupid test
tones or the same chord strumming over and over for 40 minutes. Thirteen
songs, a generous helping, but a little too short considering what a
fun, cool ride it is. Better yet, they really have put work into this.
You can tell that even in its less serious moments care has been taken
with the mix and writing and vocal nuances.

Okay, a quick run through of the songs: I Hate Milk, an evil little pop
song that rocks. World Cup Fever, the mysterious lost Dead or Alive song!
names anymore.) Lots of pretty sevenths. Borderline brilliant. Did I
mention this album has a cool cover? :) Special Angel, a pretty duet,
sad, psychedelic and cute. (Why did I completely ignore it the first four
times I listened to this?) Unrest fans, beware! Here comes more great
songwriting! Actually, in this very song: bonus great songwriting, but
just wait for the next song. :) Have you ever seen so many smileys in one
review?? :) Are you not convinced to avoid this album at all costs?? :)

Afternoon Train, more of the girl, more pretty sevenths, tacky drum
machine which you i LOVE. :) Dolphin Expressway, which I already said I
loved, great stuff. Sweet as a Candybar, sounds like a bad Bauhaus demo
with Stereolab Chyck singing over it, confused by bad acid--stupid but
short and worth the trouble. You Sweet Little Heartbreaker, a rock song,
bang bang bang, punky and fun, silly. Neely, very Unresty but with real
music, hehehe, surf music with cursing. Even when Air Miami are stupid
and lame, they are much cooler than Unrest. :)

Bubble Shield, a classic, best song on the album, extremely pretty,
beautiful in fact. The Event Horizon, also very pretty but corny and
creepy in a seventies way, or a Lush way? I can't tell. Definitely
Beachy, kind of like a good Unrest song but with structure and high and
low points, nice mellow atmosphere to it. Reprise, just a cute, nice
instrumental, very effectively sad. I never was going to give this band a
chance but all you Unrest fans hated them so much I thought I would give
them a try and now aren't you sorry! Air Miami have a champion and
apologist and YOU have created him! Muahahahaha.
