Melt
Another from the Interscope
trash heap, I picked this one up years ago and really hadn't
listened to it until recently. Obviously influenced by the success
of Garbage's debut album, this
one has the vampish-sounding Stevie Nicks type lead singer
and some rock mixed with the occasional organ or electronic
bloop and/or pre-programmed drum track. Most of it is pretty
straight forward, though, and follows the late 90's avenue of
tongue-in-cheek lyrics sung to mid-tempo pop rock that tends
to switch up styles on almost every song. This certainly sounds
like a debut album in which Interscope tried to make the band
everything for everybody, but ended up making them nobodies. |
