Stick' N Stones hits big Even if you haven't beard this yet, you've probably heard these guys before, About a year ago they had a song on the radio called "Sucker." Since then, released a CD of cover songs including their own rendition of "All For the Glory and Honor of Love", and now their sophomore album Sficks and Stones. The best description I can give you of them in words would be to say they are a mix between older Green Day and Jimmie Eat World. So they have an overall punk/rock sound. Since their inception, they have probably shifted more towards the mainstream but it is hard to say if that is because they've changed their sound or because the definition of mainstream would now include them, Whichever way you look at it, they are definitely original. Vocalist , and crew, Chad Gilbert, guitar, Ian Grushka, bass, , guitar and Chris Bolooki, drums, have put together a twelve-track album that deals lyrically with life, love, loss, and identity, in a way that today's generation can eas­ ily relate to, ~Sonny" deals with the loss of a friend, a very tough subject, beautifully. These thought through lyrics are mixed ovei:_ high energy punk/rock riffs creating an overall sound that is cool to listen to or scream along with, They play with a ton of energy and switch the tempos and styles up to keep you tuned in. Currently signed with MCA records and a headliner on the X-games tour, New Found Glory is set to hit the studio and begin working on a third album as soon as their touring schedule provides time. If you are looking for an album to test the punk/rock music water with, put this on your list, It is not as hard as most punk, but then again there are so many different varieties of punk music who is to say what does or does not classify? I'll leave that decision to you. Looking at New Found Glory as a critic, this album is very well done. As a music fan I'd say buy, burn, borrow, whatever, but get this CD. I haven't taken it out of my CD player in two weeks.

Built -To Spill goes solo

Now You Know is a different kind of album. It is the first solo project for Doug Martsch of Built To Spill and it's probably not the type of music most of us are listening to right now. The CD, overall, is very melodic and soothing. It gives off a relaxing feel that I don't want to describe as altogether good or bad. It kind of left me in the middle. Instrumentally there is a very folk rock _acoustic sound on each track. It is modern music in the sense that the lyrics are new age but there aren't any techno dance beats or bass rhythms here. It is very well put together, technically speaking. There is good lyr­ ical sound over simple instrumental series and many other noises are used to induce you to feel the album rather than hear it. The refrains will stick in your head but not because they are pop and catchy but because of the vocalist's unique voice and even more identifiable delivery. The songs in general will grow on you, if you give them a chance, because it is slow enough to hear the words, and unique enough to remind you that you are listening to music. Where many CDs can easily become background CD'S music this particular album stayed in my ear for a while. My biggest complaint would be the lack of energy and diversity. The feel of the album is achieved at the expense DVD of sounding monotonous. Each song sounds similar in beat and instrument to the one BUY • SELL • TRADE • NEW&: USEt before it.
