This review is from: Coming Attractions (Admit One) (Audio CD)
The Coming Attractions Q-single by bait-oven features three solid songs by the band comprised of Patrick Bamburak on vocals, guitars, bass, and keyboards, and Joe Gutsick on drums and percussion. bait-oven's recorded work covers all styles of music from punk to pop to country to rock. That same musical variety is jammed into this three song disc released in the summer of 2001.
The first song, "Big Top World," is a piano-based track set against a metronomic drum pattern that creates a dynamic tension throughout the song. "Big Top World" is both melodic and dramatic with rich lyrics painting images in deep colors. The middle song in this three song set is "Inherit the Earth". This song is a mid-tempo acoustic track that features a lead-guitar part by Patrick that can only be described as "cold falling water". When you hear this song, you'll know what I mean. "I Cherish You," which completes the set, is a conventional rock track at first glance, but with a second look, the lyrics pull the song into deeper waters.
Coming Attractions is alot of music presented in a neat, compact package. By virtue of its title, the disc is a little preview by bait-oven of what we can expect from the band in the future. Like any good preview, it tempts the listener to come back for more.
