Sure, they first came to public attention through a cut on the Carpenters tribute album, but that's no reason to assume that Dishwalla's not a band with a musical agenda all its own. This album is a grab-bag of various '90s styles, but all of them add up to a musical vision that is uniquely the band's own. "Truth Serum" jumps from Portisheadish trip-hop to a heavy, guitar-driven chorus. Tunes like "Once In A While" and "Healing Star" make use of acoustic instruments in the service of introspective balladry. If there's a unifying them here, it's the combination of anthemic alt-rock with quirky, electronica-derived production touches like processed voice, squiggly keyboards and the occasional looped-sounding beat. AND YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT LIFE'S ABOUT is an aural portrait of a band determined not to be stylistically pigeonholed.
