The solution to

your midterm

By Seth Flicker
It's over, folks. I hate to say it

Don't worry. This six week

Before or After
The local band Before or After will be headlining at Rick's American
Cafe tonight. The band plays a mixture of 'danceable, European-flavored
new music.' Pictured above are (left to right) John Rivard, Jim Stewart,:
Bob Brunsden (drums), and Bryan Kane. Showtime is 10 p.m. with a $2
cover.

another (usually about relation -
ships, although the band is also
politically conscious), and can get
just plain heavy handed in spots
(with lines like "I sat there
watching as you turned the
screws"). Luckily their playing
usually transcends these flaws,
kicking them into a more attainable
groove. The morbid lines of
"Sometimes (I Just Can't Get Used
to It)" are lifted out of the murk
with a strong, shuffling melody
(where did the angst go, one asks).
Angst also get very inventive on
"I Oblige," with a Doors-ish texture
straight out of "Riders on the
Storm" and whooshing seascapes.
And Paul Simon's "Richard Cory"
is Angst at their best, teasing guitar
lines playfully giving away the
band's sense of humor, as on the
kooky feel of "127 Years."
Angst may not sound like what
one would expect of a band with
their name, but underneath their
songs show a whole lot of
justification, sometimes just too
starkly. There's just this nagging
feeling that something isn't quite
congealing...like the two wave -
lengths are sort of crossed at times.
Perhaps next time around they'll try
a record of love songs...Nah.

The Wild Stares
Tricking the Future
Birth Records
Here w.e have another little
powerpop from Boston. Lots of
dissonent, dissident, primitive
guitars. We have the boy next door
singing. And a couple of friends in
the basement playing around.,
Young and pretty new to all of this,
they have a pretty little EP,
Tricking the Future, and it really
does look nice. It looks Pro
fessional, even.
There is real hope for them when
they just accept their fate. "Look
Me In The Eyes" is a great angry
guitar droning wail. The words just
sputter and spit, and whirl around iiq
indignation. It's not profound, of
sensitive... thank God! Just pissed:
"The Great Barrier" is good for
those same reasons. They know
they're not the Great Com
municator, so they just bang away
on those dissonent guitars. Maybe
they're trying to be significant
about East Germany, but it's so
obtuse that it works. And "Babies
Falling" starts off in a bad way, and
develops into a tidy sort of grey
ballad. This guy has frustration in
a big Way and yet avoids falling
into those deep, dark holes of
Frustrated Songwriting. It's won -
derfully tedious, it has nice
basslines, altogether a pleasant
thing.
Three out of five successes ain't
bad. However, they do try to reach
greatness on the other two songs,
' and 'these fail. They're just not
angry enough. At one point in
"Perfect Bash," the lead singer asks,
"Why do you wanna be here at all?"
I have to wonder myself. They
sound genuinely bored. Teenage
ennui. Who cares, really? This
stuff is much more redeeming than,
say, the new A-Ha LP or the
Shaggs, but they need a bit of
time... and maybe a bit more talent.
But not a bad effort.
