"Never Tell a Soul" is a synth-pop standout that deals with alienation, self-induced silence and internalized homophobia. With guitar work that demands striking comparison to U2's Edge, songs like "Happy Birthday, Baby Butch" grab your ears immediately. From ambitious Springsteen-like suites to a sound reminiscent of early L.A. new wave, McCoy hits the mark every time. ~ Will Grega, Rovi
