Drive-Thru Invasion Tour Compilation
Drive Thru Records
Everyone’s favorite indie pop-punk label Drive-Thru records is
back with a compilation album from its Invasion Tour, which hits
cities this fall. This compilation reminds the listeners just how many
new and breaking bands are on the label, giving a little taste of what’s
to come. The opening track “Bite to Break Skin” by Senses Fail is
mediocre at best and fails to make a lasting impression.
In contrast. The Movielife’s “Face or Kneecaps” is the standout
song on the CD because it does not compromise its sound for a pop
crowd. The Starting Line, Allister and Home Grown are also fea
tured on the CD but have a tendency to blend together due to their
gimmicky style.
An eye-opening track is the acoustic “Head on Collision” by
New Found Glory, which features charming instrumentals and high
lights lead singer Jordan Pundik’s whiny vocals.
Steel Train closes the CD with a melancholy acoustic version of
“Blown Away,” which may put some listeners to sleep. In the end,
this album is an acquired taste that deserves a listen because it show
cases some new talent, but if you are not a fan of pop-punk music
you will definitely want to pass on this one.
Snoop Dogg, Clipse, N.O.R.E. and O.D.B. (Dirt McGirtjnu
this an attractive CD to buy, but buyers beware.
Even though The Neptunes have produced many hits for
list of different artists, "Clones” fails to make a lasting im
sion and contains too much filler. Songs with Busta, Ludi
Clipse and N.O.R.E. aren’t worth listening to. However,
Nelly is a gem in this pile of rubble.
Surprising songs from Spymob and The High Speed
which have a more alternative rock sound, serve as a ref
wake-up call midway through the CD. Fans of O.D.B. can re
because he returns on “Clones" as Dirt McGirt
Sticking to his distinctive sounds, he prove
the mic. Fans of N.E.R.D. will be disappointed with the(.
because it lacks energy and tries to force-feed too many slot*
down raps. The Neptunes should go back to what they
working on other artists’ CDs. Don’t waste your money
false advertising catastrophe all the big names on the cover
out to be a major disappointment.

PEOPLE IN THE NEWS
Controversial kiss
ATLANTA (AP) — A small front-page
photo of Britney Spears and Madonna
sharing an open-mouth kiss at the MTV
Video Music Awards caused the Atlanta
Journal-Constitution to apologize to
readers in Monday’s papers.
The picture was near the top of Friday’s
front page on the morning after the tele
vised show. A larger version of the pic
ture was in the paper’s Living section.
The kiss picture elicited a deluge of
complaints to the newspaper. In
Monday’s editions, managing editor
Hank Klibanoff apologized, saying the
picture should have been inside but not
on the front page.
Klibanoff compared the picture to
graphic images from the war in Iraq.
“We ran images we otherwise might
not have run. But that was war, and war
was news. The photo we ran Friday was
neither, and I wish I had limited its dis
play," Klibanoff wrote in a response to
letters on the opinions page.
Bond goes to court
GENEVA (AP) — An alleged “cybersquat-
ter” proved no match for James Bond star
Pierce Brosnan, who won control of the
Internet name www.piercebrosnan.com in a
ruling by a United Nations panel.
Arbitrators ordered transfer of the domain
name to the Irish actor, who had com
plained that it was being used illegally.
The ruling said the registered owner of the
name — Alberta Hot Rods, of Alberta,
Canada — had no rights or interests in the
name and was using it in bad faith.
Brosnan’s lawyers told the panel that the
domain linked to another Web site tha!
