The music of Cary Pierce is nothing special. That’s not to say that it’s bud - it’s simply not ntentoruble. Rather, it sounds the same as every other CD being re- leased today aimed at the steadily aging Generation X. Its taste in music has settled over the years, moving from the grunge sound of Nirvana to the more family-oriented (and dull) music of solo- ists like Pierce. The music here is well done, the vocals are somewhat stimulat- ing, and the overall quality is just fine for radio listeners everywhere. This music will not move you, change you, or cause you to perk up, but it’ll be just fine for elevators everywhere. Who it’s for: People trying to be older and duller than they really should be. When to listen: Backgroundmusic fordriv- ing, studying, eating, whatever.. . Times when the music isn’t the focus. Overall Rating: ** %
