Query: Nickel Creek Where Art Thou?

Like a lot of you I started my latest round of summer purchases with the new Nickel Creek CD and I wish I hadn't. The cartoonish cover sums up the album perfectly. It's an eclectic, akward mess that clunks and limps along with no unifying threads and none of the barely contained energy or breezy, lightning fast instrumentals which characterized their brilliant debut effort. Instead they chose to concentrate on their vocals which was in my view, a major mistake, Thile and Sean Watkins share the vocal chores on the majority of the 13 tracks, but it is Sarah's vocals on "Seven Wonders" and "Sabra Girl" that provide the only highlights on an otherwise very disappointing sophmore effort. I hope this band which once showed so much promise can regain its stride after this misstep.
