EVE 6
Horrorscope (RCA)

Dawsons Creek is over. Time to put on my favorite band!!

The combo who got a buncha crap for being un-seasoned (Their label made them wait 'til they graduated high-school before they released anything!)) on their debut, bust loose with their amazingly mature sophomore effort. Ever met a mature sophomore? A half-assed attempt at sonic refinement/re-adjustment, that sounds more like cod-Tubeway Army new wave. This is music for people too slow & stupid to realize it's already been done better, and long before Eve 6 kicked that dead horse upside the head. This is so utterly shite that it's almost painful to listen to.

I'm on "I Got the Girl" (the second to last track), and my IQ has probably dropped enough points to be their singer! Imagine pouring a quart of rubbing alcohol onto your pink parts after being attacked by psychotic wasps with only said genitalia unsheltered. I know, that's a wee bit extreme, but that's precisely the punishment I decree for the executive who signed Eve 6.
