Free Music Notes for Friction, Baby
Free Music Review: Awesome rock and roll music
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is amazing. Ive had it since 1996 and I still love it. Speeding Up To Slow Down is one of the greatest songs Ive ever heard. Im not gonna overanalyze here because this music is unmistakably awesome. Some songs jump out at you at first and others come on strong after a few listens. Great melodies, crunchy guitar and outstanding vocals make this cd worth anyones money. Better Than Ezra are underappreciated when it comes to the mainstream but theyve got a core group of "Ezralites" who have been behind them for years. Honestly if you dont like this album then we have nothing to talk about when it comes to music.
Friction, Baby Poster
The first two albums from Better Than Ezra were recorded as low-budget demos and released on tiny indie labels, even though the second one, Deluxe, was leased by Elektra and turned into a platinum smash. The third album, Friction, Baby, is the trio's first with a big budget and an experienced producer (Don Gehman of John Mellencamp, R.E.M., and Hootie & the Blowfish), and it crystallizes Better Than Ezra's identity as a mainstream pop band relying on catchy hooks, straightforward lyrics, and top-40 arrangements (which in 1996 meant grunge guitar). Kevin Griffin, the group's singer/songwriter/guitarist, has excellent pop instincts, and the 13 songs on Friction, Baby are as pleasurable as they are unadventurous. --Geoffrey HimesAlternative Rock Music CDs
