Album notes
Better Than Ezra: Kevin Griffin (vocals, guitar); Tom Drummond (bass); Travis Aaron McNabb (drums).
Additional personnel: Peter Holsapple (mandolin, piano, organ); Joan Wasser (violin); Anthony Dagrade (flute, clarinet, saxophone); Jamil Sharie (trumpet); Mark Mullins (trombone); Matthew Perrine (tuba); Lawrence Sieberth (piano).
Recorded at Kingsway Studio, New Orleans, Louisiana between March 25 and April 27, 1996.
All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.
Better Than Ezra's second album contains the same vibrant brand of alternative rock that made the band's 1995 debut a commercial smash. The New Orleans band is clearly influenced by such melodic modern bands as the Cure and R.E.M., but Better Than Ezra loves to rock out as well; FRICTION, BABY relies heavily on grunge power chords. The band's lyrics, built around intense emotional associations with everything from backyard grass to a mix tape, imbue the band's scruffy guitar rock with pathos, and singer Kevin Griffin's fervent tenor relays a sense of uncertainty and vulnerability.
The band throws some curveballs with electronic drum beats, Dixieland-style instrumentation and funky, wah-wah guitar, but the end result is an album of songs that are pleasantly familiar without sounding played out. FRICTION, BABY is one of those albums you'll swear you've heard before but cannot place--like a pleasant dream, the events of which you cannot recall.

Editorial reviews
3 Stars - Good - ...Like Live, Better Than Ezra are essentially a hard-pop band....[they] owe more to the Beatles and the Byrds...than to indie rock. That melodic buoyancy makes [Kevin] Griffin's penchant for melodrama palatable and makes his best songs irresistibly endearing...
Rolling Stone  (09/19/1996)

6 - Reasonably Good - ...Better Than Ezra come off here as experts in the anguished surge--you've almost got to admire Kevin Griffin's ambitiousness and conviction, not to mention his utter lack of awareness that anyone else has ever felt these things before.
Spin  (09/01/1996)
