Album notes
Better Than Ezra: Kevin Griffin (vocals, guitar, piano); Tom Drummond (bass instrument); Travis Aaron McNabb (drums).
Recording information: Fudge, New Orleans, LA; Cello Studios, Los Angeles, California.
Given the title BEFORE THE ROBOTS, one might assume that Better Than Ezra's 2005 album is a concept record with a sci-fi bent. Fear not, though, BTE is still crafting catchy pop songs; drummer Travis McNabb merely nicked the name from a bizarre dream. Here, the New Orleans trio offers 13 tunes that are a crisp mix of storytelling prowess and genre dabbling. The record includes the neo-funk of "Juicy," which finds frontman/composer Kevin Griffin taking on a Mick Jagger-circa-SOME GIRLS falsetto, and the post-modern Bonnie and Clyde tale "A Southern Thing," which finds room for a mix of loops and grungy guitar riffs. Of course, Griffin's strengths are as a raconteur, a talent he displays with a narrative inspired by the demise of country-rock legend Gram Parsons on the jangly "A Lifetime." Equally impressive is the mid-tempo, Tom Petty-like rocker "American Dream," which takes potshots at the major corporations of the world. The biggest anomaly on BEFORE THE ROBOTS is "It's Only Natural," a soulful nugget dotted with strings, subtle organ runs, and a dream-pop aura, co-written by neo-glam rockers Louis XIV.
