"This last album was done on the theory, 'Fuck radio,'" he said. The BoDeans' music surpasses similar quasi-Mellencamp, quasi-Springsteen, from-the-homeland outings, with the tag- team duo of frontmen Kurt Neumann and Sam Lianas. The Neumann-Lianas combination serves as the focal point for the band. In addition to penning all of the songs, they take the spot­ light in concert, when the onstage comraderie of the longtime buddies establishes a playful mood for rock 'n' roll. Neumann's lucid, romantic voice plays counterpart to Lianas' gritty drawl over the amicable sparing of Neumann's electric and Lianas' acoustic guitars. Their latest album, Home, houses agreeable numbers high­ lighting Neumann and Lianas. They wrote many of the tunes while touring with their last album, Outside Looking In. Part of that tour consisted of opening dates for U2's Joshua Tree tour. Critics have cited the influence of U2 in Home by pointing out the BoDeans' somewhat heightened social conscience, and even more so, the style of their music. The guitar delay that kicks off "You Don't Get Much" reso­ nates with the indelible mark of the Edge. Neumann emphat­ ically denies that the time spent with U2 swayed his songwriting.
