'Seat Sweat' feels good; Mariah Carey flutters by
By Ashlee Roll
Kansan staff writer
Southern Culture on the Skids-"Plastic Seat Sweat"-Geffen
The hillbilly gang called Southern Culture on the Skids is once again serving up its own brand of country-fried tunes with the album "Plastic Seat Sweat." This time around, S.C.O.T.S. is singing about phenomena like shotgun weddings, truck drivers on crack and naturally, plastic seat sweat. Although the new album lives up to expectations, watch out for the hidden track-it's 11 minutes long. S.C.O.T.S. is definitely a live band, but the album is good enough to tide you over until their next local show. Come and git it!
Release Date-September 23,1997
Forest for the Trees-"Forrest for the Trees"-Dream-Works
This self-titled debut from Forest for the Trees is a truly unique listening experience. Carl Stephenson, the driving force behind Forest, has created a wonderful blend of trihop beats and exotic instrumentals by unorthodox instruments like sitar and baggipes. But eclectic music making is not new to Stephenson, who co-produced the 1991 album "Mellow Gold" with Beck. Beck even appears in the second track, "Infinite Cow." The album is eccentric and experimental, but has a dance feel to it that will never leave you bored. Although the material is five years old, it is still fresh by today's standards. It may strike some as a bit weird, but genius always does.
Various Artists- "We Will Fall: The Iggy Pop Tribute"-Royalty
OK, does everyone have their own tribute CD? I can only hope this is the last time a great artist is immortalized with crappy bands doing crappy covers of good songs. The bands that appear on the album don't deserve their own records much less to appear on one that is a tribute to the so-called "Gfather of Punk." Covers of songs like "Real Wild Child" and "Lust for Life" by bands like Sugar Ray, Nada Surf and Superdrag just don't cut it. And when were you smitten with anything Joan Jett and the Blackhearts did? Good songs, bad musicians. Sorry Iggy, we really do like you.
Various Artists- "End of Violence: Motion Picture Soundtrack"-Outpost
These days, to say that a soundtrack is star-studded is redundant. But this soundtrack
is so incredible, that it might actually make me see the movie. Ry Cooder performs the original score, but that is available on his own album. There are some surprisingly good collaborations between U2 and Sinead O'Connor as well as Michael Stipe and Vic Chesnutt. The soundtrack is mellow but is balanced with original songs by DJ Shadow and Tom Waits. Dance, jazz, slow jamy-jams, this album has it all.
Mariah Carey "Butterfly"-Columbia
After her record executive husband made her famous, she ditched him and his label, and came up with "Butterfly."
After covering everyone else's songs, she has branched out on her own. Gone are the pigtails and innocence. Now she's "down" with rap's newest darling, Sean "Puffy" Combs. Every song that Carey sings is written solely for the high school crowd. The new album is properly melancholy, with a touch of newfound sexuality missing from her previous efforts. Don't worry though, she still manages to sneak in some of that high-pitched screaming she does so well. The biggest surprise (if it can be called that) is the cover of Prince's "The Beautiful Ones." Imagine that, a cover song. It is a shame that Carey has chosen to waste her obvious vocal talent.
