Dovetail Joint
001
Columbia Records
The traditional college rock of
the Gin Blossoms and the brood
ing sound of Big Wreck make for
an odd combination, but Chica
go’s Dovetail Joint pulls it off
with style and grace on 001.
Their simple lyrics and relax
ing vibe ensure that a good time
is had by all.
The band covers adolescence
to pubescence on 001.
“Beautiful” is a head-bobbin,
body-rockin’ ballad that ex
presses the innocent virtues of
love at first sight.
“Except When You’re Late”
declares the annoyance of un
timely dates in a semi-new wave
fashion.
Freshman psychology class
rears its ugly head on the band’s
first single, “Level On The In
side,” as frontman Chuck Glad-
felter proclaims, “Feigning your
humility/It only serves to weak
en the/Most common observa
tions that you make.”
A new generation of college
rockers. Dovetail Joint carries
the torch for generations to
come. (Grade: B)

Fear of Pop
Volume I
Sony Music
Entertainment
Entering the wonderfully
wacky world of Ben Folds is an
experience, to say the least.
The pageantry of Folds’ inge
nuity and off-beat charm pervade
on his instrumental and spoken
word side project, Fear of Pop.
Beware, Ben Folds Five faithfuls
expecting the mellow drama of
“Brick” might be scared off by the
jungle beats, synthesizers and
groovy basslines that instantly
surround them.
The album contains aphrodisi
acs full of enough grooves and
lounge sounds to make Austin
Powers giddy.
The main attraction on the al
bum is “In Love,” a spoken word
performance starring William
Shatner as the unrequited lover.
Shatner’s performance provides a
very enlightening look at relation
ships from a man’s perspective.
Folds takes his fun quite seri
ously on Volume I, impersonating
everything from a classic Ponch
and John police chase to British
techno maniacs.
Volume I is an adventure for
those who like to journey down
the road not taken and venture
into a new place. (Grade: A-)
