i was happy. i was happy and i knew it. i clapped my hands.

Ace Enders is probably one of the hardest working musicians in the business. He has about six releases with The Early November and I Can Make A Mess Like Nobody's Business since 2002; and on July 11, The Early November will release a new three discs album entitled The Mother, The Mechanic, And The Path. Oh yeah, you’ve heard it right, the new TEN album is a triple disc release with over 45 tracks! I don’t know how I am going to review this without going overboard... I mean it is a huge orgy of TEN songs!!! So, I guess all I can do is just give a few words on each disc: The Mother (disc 1)… nothing really new here, just good old TEN stuffs. The Mechanic (disc 2)… I’m not really a big fan of this disc… mediocre rock album… a little disappointing. The Path (disc 3)… alright, this one is absolutely amazing. It is basically a soundtrack of dialogues and music, very unique indeed! To me, The Path feels more like a I Can Make A Mess Like Nobody's Business album. Nonetheless, every single song on The Path is good, and the dialogues/plot is engaging... there’s even a surprise ending… I guess. You will find a few songs from each disc below, you are more than welcome to download them, but I think the ones from The Path are most enjoyable as a whole... with the dialogue sessions. So kids, go buy The Mother, The Mechanic, And The Path on Tuesday!
