Baudry, CAI, TX 8542 Extreme shows versatility on new, fast-paced album By TRICIA MARTINEZ Reviewer of THE BA TTA LION Extreme "III Sides To Every Story" A&M Records Extreme's third release, "HI Sides To Every Sto ry," is out and steadily rocking its way up the mu sic charts. It's a relief to know that Extreme will not sell it self short by living in candyland, producing sin gles such as "More Than Words" and "Hole Hearted," which were so successful on their second release, "Pornagrafiti." Don't get me wrong, the songs are good, but they are more along the lines of The Outfield. Extreme is a rock group and "HI Sides To Every Story" illustrates this to the highest degree. There are a couple of tracks that sound as though Chica go might have had some input, but other than those two the album contains solid rock. Nuno Bettencourt is memorable on guitar, and drummers will especially enjoy listening to "Cupid's Dead," which is full of Paul Geary's drum solos. Extreme tried some innovative ideas on this al bum. It opens with a military voice giving com mands to what sounds like an entire infantry troop, but when you hear a young girl's small voice reply "Yes, daddy" it sets the mood for the entire album. You just don't know what will happen next. In fact, you hear everything from train sound ef fects in " Stop the World" to Martin Luther King Jr. delivering a speech in "Peacemaker Die." The hard rock stops just long enough for Ex- Extreme rocks and gets more innovative with their third album, "III Sides To Every Story." treme to fit in a ballad. Once again their unforget table harmony is heard as on ^Pornagrafiti" and you learn that all members of the group are talent ed on vocals. Lead singer Gary Cherone goes all out on this project. He sounds as though he is having a good time, especially on the cut ^'Tragic Comic." It al most seems that he is laughing in parts, or at least smiling. The album's latest single, "Rest In Peace,"isal- ready receiving local air play on AOR stations and is holding position five on the charts. Extreme tru ly fits the old cliche that the third time is a charm. 'Bob Roberts' overdoes political parody By TIMM DOOLEN Special to THE BATTALION "Bob Roberts" Starring Tim Robbins Directed by Tim Robbins Now playing at Schulman 6 It's hard to believe, but it is pos sible to try too hard to make neo- fascist con servatives look like id iots. In "Bob Roberts," first-time writer-direc tor Tim Rob bins makes the title char acter of the movie into an unbeliev able parody of Republiqan^politics. The film is a mock British docu mentary on American politics, fo cusing on a fictional 1990 Pennsyl vania Senate campaign. Robbins creates a serious look at a laughable character, or a hu morous look at a contemporary politician. It depends on your point of view, and how closely you identify with the teachings of the Grand Old Party. Bob Roberts rises to fame as a conservative folk singer, makes millions in Wall Street in the 1980s and decides to run for the Senate, taking us on the road to our coun try's ruin. "Conservative folk" may be a contradiction in terms, but it's the basis of the funniest parts of the movie. Roberts lampoons Bob Dylan's "Times They Are A-Changin'" in the humorous "Times Are Chang ing Back," which, along with simi lar songs, extolls the virtues of blind conservatism. In "I'm a Bleeding Heart" he ,sings "Let's give money away to lazy people..,What's right is right/ What's left is wrong." You get the idea. Aboard his tour bus is a stock market on wheels, where he con tinues to make more millions, and at night he makes singing appear ances around the state to ooost his place in the polls. The premise is enough to keep you laughing for the first 30 tofi minutes, and some of the running jokes provide additional laughs. But the serious edge thatcreens in through the first half of tne movie and flourishes in the sec ond half engulfs the movie and drowns it. This film is too one-sided to be taken seriously, and too seriousto be taken laughingly throughout. The conservatives are sooooobad, and the liberals are soooogood- it's safe to say there's a nappy middle ground. Nonetheless, the songs area hoot (buy the soundtrack). The whole film should havebeenas good. "Bob Roberts" will appeal to people who are,fed u.p..with glossy politicians. One warning: this movie is not for all tastes and may offend those who lean to the right A rule of thumb - if you got ex cited about the Dan Quayle rally on campus this week, don't see "Bob Rooerts." % O' 6t (t cC 7 o CO (t Information is provided by the individual nightclubs and is subject to change. ‘THu&ic Gallery Bar College Station Hilton, 801 E.
