Aside from the overcrowded media used for sniveling about problems an1i'-­ States preaching personal anguish, music sometimes has more to say than just the intangiblt notes it consists of. So counting the artistic role of arranging words into meaningful lyrics, music is responsible for the control of two art forms defining and interacting simultaneously. As an offspring of East Coast indy label Dischord Records, Lungfish displays the melodicism of Superchunk coupled with the shrewd vocal bite of Fugazi. Their latest 10- St. Thomas University track release, Sound in Time, is overflowing with instrumental anxiety built around lyrical The Archidiocesan Catholic University of Florida sincerity that delivers art worth admiring. Musically, Lungfish lacks in the creation of new themes with often monotonous, hyp­ SCHOOL OF LAW 16400 N.W. 32nd Avenue, Miami, Florida 33054 notic guitar hooks. Songs such as "To whom yoti were born" and "The Cipher" carry the 1-800~245-4569 ability to degrade pulse rates with narcotic themes present throughout.

However, this is not detrimental to the album, just deceptive to the expected out­ on February 14, 1995 come (kinda like expecting Sprite when it's only water). Sound in Time undoubtingly represents itself best through the execution of its lyrics written by lead vocalist Daniel Higgs. The poetic lyrical essence is felt with sincerity rather than with annoyance of self-pity and personal fortitude. In "Signpost," Higgs sings with determination, "The way is wide/ My all the· time ghost bride/ There is no warning sign/ To make how clear the way is wide/ But if you'll be my signpost." Just as all artists, the personal meaning is symbolically buried to stimulate the discovery of relation to oneself. In "Panic and Hysteria," he contented sings "The miraculous obsolete/The speech of the half-ex­ tinct/ The involuntary grin/ The foundation of the dimension that we live in." I would_pp.nt all the lyrics if I had the space-heighten yourself and check it out. The Humpers-live Forever or Die Trying Punk's revitalization in the '90s has triggered quite a response from the reckless adoles­ cence of Generation X. However it has also been quite abrasive in rubbing many artists and musicians the wrong way. Punk rock's power-chord trilogies and meth-induced shrieking about staying true to your "hardcore/ punk roots" has flooded the musical evolution, whose future is looking vacuously targeted at a VOID. The nationwide bandwagon has changed its sign to punk with a destination that is un­ known. The Southern California spawning bed seems to be losing fertility and gaining notoriety for its ability to produce punk rock carbon copies for the poster boys of th,e de­ cade. The Humpers, from Downey, Calif., have just climbed aboard- pretentious, blank and with no sense of direction. Their latest release from Epitaph Records, Live Forever or Die Trying, passes the punk, rock inspection with 17 short-lived songs, monotonous riffs and lyrics about anarchy. Wa­ hoo.--long live Sunk rock. Another six-piece creation of noise has yet again effortlessly occupied space like a land-fill gone bad. · The opening track, "Wake Up and Lose," acts as a precursor for what is to follow- irony and hypo criticism. Lead vocalist, Scott "Deluxe" Drake, incompetently croons out, "Wake up and lose/might as well, you don't stand a chance/Wake up and die/Yeah go ahead, do it - while you can." Deja vu. Along with the lyrics, the rest of the assemblage is a ditto with prosaic power chords apd the patented "boom chick boom chick" style drumming. As fo · the remaining line-up, "Losers Club," "Rocket and The Retards" and "Anarchy Juice," I think they all pretty much speak for themselves. BUY • SELL • TRADE My persistent bashing of punk music is not to say that this movement is a bad thing. It represents a lot of what the youth of today is milling through with their struggle to find We Pay Cash some lively outlet of aggression and personal freedom. However, this revitalization marks the antithesis of what punk music was/ is all about. For a music that was founded on a basis of rebellion against the mainstream, it sure looks odd sitting in the spotlight of the musical NEWondUSED arena. I am afraid that if people come to their senses, this 'big fish in a little pond' may be floating belly up.
