The best description of this CD would be to say it isodd, ifr;:| completely alien. The instruments are common - guitar, ba;:[ drums, vocals and organ — but Gossard pulls them together! such a way as to paint a landscape portrait of outer sanity. "Fits” presents the cautious narration of some vague issuea:| does so with slow numbing beats and intermittent sounds ofr| dering operatic background vocals. Cover art on the jacket offers even fewer clues to Gossarc; madness and proves indecipherable in its own right. Further solidifying the album's eerie quality are tracks hi “Cadillac," which rolls on with a flowing baseline intoahap? love song, “She’s a Cadillac, boy she’s a Cadillac.” Thistunei borderline normal, standing out against the calm chaos of other songs. Guitar on the title track "Bayleaf" sounds like that of the years of Pearl Jam. But again, Gossard’s uncommon melodel distinguish the song from anything associated with the grungs| greats from Seattle. Doubtless, this album will raise more questions than answers, but the depth of creativity and artistry make it| refreshing.

PEORL What began with the discovery of a free sample CD at a Victory Records showcase at the famous South by Southwest, led to the pur chase of the CD Tell All Your Friends from the up-and-coming band Taking Back Sunday. With the release of the debut album Tell All Your Friends, band has been thrown into the pit with hands such as Thursday. Jimmy Eat World and Dashboard Confessional. ' With enough emotional howling to satisfy hard coreemofon^a bit of punk-inspired guitar playing and melodic sounds to wake the girls swoon, Tell All Your Friends has a selection of sounds to appeal to different tastes. Singer Adam Lazzara interlaces his vocals with band mates, into a perfect unison of screams and melodies. There is some thing addicting about the mix of a bitter love inspired song being sung (or better yet, yelled) at the top of ones lungs. In “Great Romances of the 20th century,’’ Taking Bac Sunday knows exactly what it wants to say and exactly how ^ say it with resentful lyrics such as “This won’t mean a W come tomorrow and that’s exactly how I’ll make it seem. I s this turning you on?)" But it is the quirky way the lyrics are chased with interrupts words that keeps you interested. In the song “Cute Withoutthe (Cut from the team),” two voices go in, out, over and undereac other, singing, "Princess, which would you prefer? Myfing^ the trigger or me face down across your floor? (Just so long- this thing’s loaded).” ... It is almost a guarantee this CD will not be taken out0 _ disc changer for a long time ... or at least until every wor embedded into the brain.
