- They did it again
I went the hard way around and had a friend bring the CD from Germany along with the latest Die Happy CD (with another excellent singer named Marta Jandova).
Anyway, Guano Apes musicly grew up a little and there are some very, very good songs on the CD. Quietly brings about emotions I normally don't have as well as Kiss the Dawn and Pretty in Scarlet.
They really deserve a chance in the USA and frankly, I don't see it coming due to inter-squabbling at BMG. But then again, that's why the recording industry is in such shambles.

- More focused, more mature, classic Guano Apes (finally!)
This album is by far the best work Guano Apes have put out. I own both their previous albums, but in spite of moments of brilliance (including their debut single, "Open Your Eyes", neither of them really succeeded in channelling the obvious energy of the group consistently into songs that clicked. Walking on a Thin Line finally delivers, lining up song after song of classic Guano Apes. This album is a bit lighter on the manic joke songs than the previous albums, which is probably a good thing. While they have done decent light-hearted songs as B-sides ("Candy Love") and collaborations ("Kumba Yo") in the past, the darker, more sincere material is what Guano Apes do best. Songs like "Quietly", "Storm", and "Kiss the Dawn" on this album are especially successful in this vein. This album single-handedly puts Guano Apes in the ranks of the best rock bands of the world at the moment. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:

Unlike Evanescence, to which many people will compare this band, Guano Apes blends heavy rock with the sometimes soft, sometimes just as heavy sound of Sandra's voice--no techno or industrial mixes. This CD is a MUST HAVE for those who love rock but wish for something a little less commercialized and lot more in touch with rock and roll's emotions. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:

This album is really fantastic. Sandra Nasic has such a powerful voice. She's truly versatile. If you've not listened to the Guano Apes before, buy this album. From full-on 'rock out' in "Sing that Song" (my favorite) to "Quietly", you will definitely be impressed. - 2/5
This album is 2 stars because some of the songs are listenable. I hardly enjoy listening to this album.
I hardly recommend this album. Addy.
