What is so intriguing about this band, is their musical maturity. They are all excelent musicians and they show it using such antiquated notions as 'Dynamics,' and 'Time Changes.' The Uncontrollable Urge is a band for those who can enjoy something decently heavy and are wondrering where all the talent has gone.
