We've learned a lot this semester, haven't we? We have learned that our invincibility as young, healthy American citizens can be test­ ed and defeated. We have also learned that there exists, beneath the shadows, networks of trained terrorists who spend day and night preparing to carry out devastating actions against our communities. Probably the most important thing we have been taught over the last few months, however, is that we, as young and healthy college students are quite lucky to be where we are. Many students, myself included, tend to be trapped in a "grass is greener" perspective with regard to their surroundings. It is an integral part of our early struggle with the American Dream. It is important to that white-picket-fences dream that we feel uncomfortable with our current lifestyle so we can have motivation to go out and get a bigger and better lifestyle. photo by anne ravenel But as we watch innocent children in those war- countries just half a globe away from the beds where we lie safely and peacefully each night, do we not start to KDP holds initiation ceremony question that perception?

Jimmy Eat World Bleed American Dreamworks It's a rare occasion that a CD actually inspires me to write about it, but this year's release by Jimmy Eat World is just too good to go unnoticed. Admittedly, Bleed American sat on my shelf untouched for months until last week, when a desire to hear the title track-also the first single-impelled me to give the disc a spin. Within seconds, I was in love. And the amazing thing is the music just kept getting better and better. Now the critics call it emo, but I'd rather call it straight up rock and roll, with some of the most personal lyrics ever penned by a rock outfit. Bleed American kicks off on a harder note with the title track and its power guitar riff, but then lightens up the sound a bit for the rest of the album. The beauty of Bleed American doesn't rest with one track in par):icular, so I'll spare you the boredom of recounting the CD · track by track. Instead, I'd like to mention how insanely beautiful and touching the band's lyrics are, while perfectly complemented with well-crafted emo-rock. With lines like "You're winning me over/With everything you say/I only want you closer" and "We once walked out on the beach/And once I almost touched your hand;' Jimmy Eat World ·tosses in the discreet, unassuming love songs without sacrificing any credibili­ ty or strength of the music. Every single track on Bleed American is a gem, with "Sweetness" and "IfYou Don't, Don't" ringing in as my personal favorites. After listening to the album, it's no wonder that Jimmy Eat World has been splattered all over the pages of Rolling Stone, Spin and Alternative Press, with rave reviews every single time. If you're in search of something a little different, then Bleed American is certainly worth a listen. Just don't let your copy collect as much dust as mine did before giving it a spin. -LLW

Granted, the exposure from participating in VHl 's Bands on the Run Series served as a catalyst for Flickerstick's recently inked deal with Epic Records. But regardless of Bracewell · the show, this quintet from Dallas,Texas was destined for stardom sooner or later. The proof lies in the band's debut album Welcoming Home the Astronauts, a refreshing dose of experimental pop-rock that was just re-released Nov. 7 on Epic Records.

With regular Friday performances at Stogies and now Wednesday night gigs at O.C. Whites, Lorna has established a following among students and local resi­ dents. But her appeal, as she admits, is a bit unconventional. "I'm not a good guitar player, and I'm not a good singer;' she confesses. "But people don't like to hear that; people don't like to believe that. But seriously, my strength is that since I can't tech­ nically sing really well or technically play guitar really well, I just give it 150 percent every time. I just try, and I think people can see that." Lorna's folk rock original material nicely compliments the host of covers she per­ forms live.
