NOTE: (just so you know, they are comparing Moist and IME)


	"If there is an imbalance between the two groups, it lies in the 
sheer star power of their respective frontmen.  And, clearly, Moist's David
Usher has an edge, despite Edwin's laid-back mannerisms.  Once Moist 
mounted the stage, the differences became more evident - the decibel level
from the crowd went up a couple of notches (not to mention the pitch; fancy 
that!)
	"Still, Moist has much more to offer than just Usher's ability to 
stir up adolescent female hormones. Their songs tend to be more direct than 
IME's elaborate constructs, while still allowing for plenty of showiness 
from guitarist Mark Makoway and keyboardist Kevin Young.  And their range 
isnt bad either, from favourite blasts like 'Machine Punch Through' and 
'Ressurection' to the moodier 'Leave it Alone' and 'Silver' (which featured 
some soaring backing vocals from bassist Jeff Pearce, who managed to pull 
it off despite being hammered by the flu.)
	"Ultimately, it was more love-in than grudge match, with I Mother 
Earth and Moist playing tag-team and applying a submission hold to a 
gleefuly willing audience.  All right! Uncle already!"
