  • They Say...

    In 1999, Vertical Horizon didn't have much with which to follow its breakthrough single, "Everything You Want." And yet the song's percolating groove provided enough sustenance for listeners led astray by Secret Samadhi, Live's pompous follow-up to Throwing Copper. Now, Vertical has returned with Go, an album in which "When You Cry" stands in for "Everything You Want" and introduces the album's catch phrase psychotherapy, with Matthew Scannell singing "I can't wait until you let me down." "I'm Still Here" seems to cross the band's 1999 hit with Michelle Branch's "Everywhere," which was produced by Go helmer John Shanks. "Echo" is at once the album's hookiest and most opaque moment, applying the familiar acoustic/electric, quiet-loud formula. "I don't want to be just another echo," Scannell sings. [This version of the album includes the bonus track "Better When You're Not There."]
