As the band moves even further away from traditional instrumentation, guitars are now almost completely absent, replaced by an array of keyboard blips and throbs. Alongside the barrage of synth sounds, vocal distortion and cello are used to create a more calculated, fuller sound than on previous efforts. Todd Baechle’s vocals are hauntingly affecting and blend ominously into the dour sonic landscape. The Nebraskan quintet has also shifted its lyrical theme to the dark side: while Arcade was littered with youthful references to sex and cars, Danse Macabre creates a considerably more wicked tone. Tracks like “Let The Poison Spill From Your Throat” and “Posed To R.I.Y.L.: Kraftwerk, Human League, The Cure Death” highlight the contrast suggested by the album’s title — despite lyrics full Contact: AAM Phone: 212.924.3005 of morbid imagery, they are immensely catchy and danceable.

On the cheekily-titled track “Your Retro Career Bloomington, IN (8/31); Indianapolis, IN (9/1); Melted”,the group sums up its future with one simple lyric: “The crowd just Murfreesboro, TN (9/2); Louisville, KY (9/4); Columbus, OH (9/5); Allendale, NY (9/7) seemed to multiply.” — Alex Naidus BEULAH The Coast Is Never Clear (Velocette) On their 1999 sophomore effort When Your Heartstrings Break, San Francisco indie darlings Beulah employed no less than 18 guest musicians who plumped up the record with everything from accordion to horns. The result was a lush, voluminous pop sound that critics and Elephant 6 followers swooned over. For The Coast Is Never Clear, the band’s first proper studio recording, the original six-piece trades in the huge supporting cast for an old pre-synthesizer keyboard (to emulate strings). Despite the simplified approach, Beulah’s latest is still a richly melodious concoction. Layered vocal harmonies float dreamily above the pleasant din of the songs’ full-on instrumentation, and all the gorgeous flour- ishes are still in place, from the perfect piano tinkling on “What Will You Do When Your Suntan Fades?” to the energized trumpet bursts on “Silver Lining.” Psychedelic twee at its best, Coast is packed with hummable pop choruses that R.I.Y.L: Apples In Stereo, Of Montreal, Built To Spill, Pavement will have you grinning (and who wouldn’t be with song titles like “A Good Man Contact: SPECTRE Promotion Is Easy to Kill” and “I’ll Be Your Lampshade”?). “I heard he wrote you a song, Phone: 323.644.3776 Email: [email protected] but so what?/Some guy wrote 69, and one just ain’t enough,” frontman Miles Release Date: Sept. 25; at radio Kurosky wittily intones in “Popular Mechanics For Lovers.” Like a good love song, Beulah’s fresh pop is timeless. — Stephanie Valera R.I.Y.L. = Recommended If You Like 4 CMJ AUGUST 20, 2001 THENEW WEEK’S BEST MUSIC NEW MUSIC CLICK THA SUPAH-LATIN Square Won (Underload) On his third album, Square Won, L.A.’s Click Tha Supah-Latin champions the fundamentals of hip-hop, including the oft-underrated fifth element: the beatbox. Back in the day before rap became part of the pop machine, beatboxers like Doug E. Fresh, Biz Markie and the Fat Boys’ Buff were an essential part of the scene. With Square Won, Click (an expert vocal percussionist himself) resurrects this art form, and man, is this guy nice. Check out his mouth artistry on the unadorned “The Fifth L.E.” (under rhymes by Reignman) and the inimitable “Beatbox Break” (capped off by the melodic hook from Salt ’N Pepa’s “Push It”). Square Won has an old-school vibe (there’s not a sample-heavy or electronica-laced track to be found here), as Click himself explains in the title track: “Many got the notion that for MCs to rhyme/ They gotta have loops, chords and phat bass lines… I’ll be the R.I.Y.L.: Rahzel, Emanon, Doug E. Fresh, Jurassic-5 first to flip that mic switch on/ Take you back to square one/ Show you all where Contact: Jon Doe I’m from.” Breakbeats are sprinkled with scratching, touches of piano and flute, Phone: 818.382.2515 Email: [email protected] and rhymes by Click (who proves he’s as capable MCing as he is making music Release Date: Sept. 25; at radio with his mouth on tracks like head-nodders “The Park” and “Get Live”) and guests like Derek Strong, Jurassic-5 and others. The family even gets some play — Click’s wife and kids are featured on “Family Freestyle” and his son Anthony (a.k.a. Click 44) jumps in on “Square Won” and “Diferente’” (the latter of which is dusted by a killer salsa-fied flute).

ABSOLUTE EDITORIAL Absolute Editorial #3 Things are coming together nicely for us here at Absolute Underground. This is starting go be fun! We’re getting into a few free shows and people are starting to send in CD’s for us to review. We’ve got a lot of new people pitching in to make this rag better than ever. Emily Kendy joins us from Vancouver and brings with her a very impressive resume (The Nerve, Discorder, Terminal City, Exclaim...). We’ll be featuring a different Vancouver based band each issue starting with scum punks the Excessives. With the new Arena and Rod Stewart having played Victoria, you can just feel that this is going to be a great year for live music around town. I’m always impressed with the turnout and energy of the younger crowds at the all-ages shows. Even if you’re old you should go check one out sometime. You might find it invigorating to jump in a circle pit of mohawked fury. It was great hanging out with the crew at Spitfire Tattoo special thanks to Rick and Amanda. Electric Frankenstein was an amazing show and just proves that Victoria gets wicked shows all the time. A big middle finger to the asshole bouncers @ Diego’s who wouldn’t let me in even though I was on the guest list and then proceeded to tell the headlining act CHOKE to “pack their shit, they weren’t going to play.” This was after two huge idiots working the door beat up CHOKE’s drummer who weighs about a buck ten soaking wet.

All activities had been seamlessly moved indoors, which turned out to be a boon for one and all, with no missed notes.
