| BACKGROUND/COMPOSITION: |
| Inward Eye have no qualms about utterly losing themselves in the mod-pop assault they lay down for audiences show after show, but after a few frenetic guitar solos and non-stop posturing, you can't help but wonder where one song ended and the next began. |
| Comment:Inward Eye have been playing these showcases for a while now, but it seems like much of what they have to bring just remains the same. They wear their influences proudly on their sleeves as emmisaries of wild, unabashed rock, but whirling dervish guitar playing and frantic yelps into a microphone have yet to prove why we should care beyond their raucous set. |

Step: |
| Problem Solving: |

As grand as it is to see a guitar player willing and able to absolutely flip out mid-solo, Inward Eye have the problem of making individual songs stand out above their indomitable stage presence.
