If your average hipper-than-thou Village Voice rock critic created a band in a laboratory, it would sound precisely like this. (No, kids, that is not a good thing.)There are some interestingly written songs here - a few displaying that endangered species called "melody" - but even those numbers are mucked up with annoying studio-geek flapdoodle that's more bad Sonic Youth than good Radiohead. Add to this the most grating vocals since Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, plus 14 tracks of dead silence - each one titled "Untitled" and lasting 17 seconds - and you're on a long strange trip to art-school hell.Less production and pretension, and more simple songcraft...and maybe they'll be on their way.
