5.0 out of 5 stars What an album!, April 27, 2000

This album is incredible. Edgy, raw, gentle, melodic, and just absolutely brilliant. Sister 7 beats the pants off of the majority of rock n' roll music being produced today. Lead singer Patrice Pike's vocal work is absolutely astonishing and guitarist Wayne Sutton's hooks and melodies, a thing of beauty--diverse and rivoting. Sean and Sean on drums and bass provide the framework to effectively and professionally complete the rhythmic circle. There is not a weak tune on this album. By the third listen I was completely hooked. I disagree with the Cheryl Crow comparison--Pike out-performs Crow at so many levels...but this is not a competition, it's rock n' roll and Sister 7 is one hell of a rock n' roll band. See them live and get this album! You will not regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This may be the best band putting out albums right now, April 6, 2000

I've been a Sister 7 fan since their very early days, when they were known as Little Sister, and this album doesn't disappoint. This album expands upon the sounds of their first 2, bringing a bit more diversity to their delivery. In some cases this works amazing, as in the Zeppelin-esque "Elijah,"; the acoustic-tinged, Top-40-r&b-feel of "Nobody Knows"; and the Summertime funk of "Kiss Me Baby." There are a couple of mis-steps: the Sheryl Crow impression of "the only thing that's real" disappoints. It's a GOOD Sheryl Crow impression, but Patrice and Co. are capable of so much more than that. Also, if you get a chance, SEE THEM LIVE! They are without a doubt the best live band I've ever seen.

5.0 out of 5 stars rockin' sophistication, April 10, 2000

By

This review is from: Wrestling Over Tiny Matters (Audio CD)

The new Sister 7 album exceeded my already high expectations. Not only does the album include some memorable Patrice Pike melodies, but its rock tunes groove with a high degree of sophistication. The alternating 4/4--6/4 bars of the chorus from MY THREE WISHES, for example, strike just the right balance between Aerosmith's mid-70s peak and early Police, all the while sounding highly orginal. I can't recommend this album strongly enough for those who are looking for a record which is simultaneously rockin' and challenging.
