REVIEW: Shred Eagle - Axis of Eagle

I wonder about the long-term psychological effects of a song stuck on repeat play in my head for several days. Add the word "Twizzler" to the mix, and who knows what kind of crazy synaptic firing is taking place?

I hold Shred Eagle responsible for turning a domestic squabble into a snappy licorice metaphor-laden musical adventure that refuses to release me from its grasp. "Licorice is Forever" is an addictive track from Chicago-based Shred Eagle's 2006 release, Axis of Eagle, an idiosyncratic mix of They Might Be Giants sensibility and classic rock sound, with a healthy dash of social consciousness tossed in here and there for good measure.

Not a fan of licorice? Try the paranoid fixations of "Malice People," which I'd recommend for background music if you get the hankering to read something Kafka-esque, or enjoy the crustacean revenge fantasy of "When Lobsters Came Out of the Sea," which encourages us to extend the golden rule to shellfish.

Shred Eagle's serious side is evident in plenty of places, including "13 and 12 ¾," which addresses the tragedy that took place at Ruby Ridge between federal authorities and Randy Weaver and his family. "Terrorism" oddly compels you to tap your toes as it takes on the controversial issue of Islamic terrorism, and "Blasted Hearth" gives credence to something Marlon Brando once said about family being the "furnace in which we burn."

Axis of Eagle offers a lot of strong tracks, and even songs like "Squalor House," which fail to make an impression as you pass them by on your way to a song with a catchier intro and sound, deserve further exploration for the intelligent lyrics.
