专辑介绍

by John D. Luerssen

Mecca Normal frontwoman Jean Smith cooks up an ingenious idea for a concept album with The Observer, which tackles the pros and woes of online dating with results that wind up mixed. Launched with &I'm Not into Being the Woman You're with While You're Looking for the Woman You Want,& the actual song is less involved than its lengthy title suggests, as Mecca guitarist David Lester pumps out a memorable riff amid an otherwise sparse, crisp presentation. Tracks like the poppish &Attraction Is Ephemeral& and the muscular rocker &I'll Call You& are equally alluring, but the duo falls off balance with the painfully long &Fallen Skier.& At 12 minutes, this rant about bad Wi-Fi-secured dates is just aimless and barely tuneful, while &The Caribou & the Oil Pipeline& finds Smith caterwauling the line &Didn't think I could write a hit but I had to try,& with her tongue planted firmly in cheek.
