Title: Take reviews with a grain of salt!
Product review: I bought this CD because I was intrigued by Frank Black ever since his unforgettable work with the Pixies (Surfer Rosa, Doolittle). That was pretty gosh darn smart; contemplating an artist's evolution is one of the most interesting topics in musical criticism. Buy this CD; unsurprisingly it is eminently UNforgettable. I was expecting some interesting rock and clever lyrics, and that's exactly what I got. Black is a post-modern master with a completely unique style- both lyrically and musically. Find someone else with a comparable style and they will undoubtedly be a Frank Black rip off.If you can't sing along with something, why not listen to it again and try to grasp it's subtlety? If you still can't sing along, just let Black do it for you; after all, he's the vocalist of these songs, not you. And his voice is more interesting than yours...
