ROCK: 80's Rock, POP: New Wave
Details:
As the enigmatic title and CD cover implies, each song on the solo debut from Craig Wisda represents a perceptive study in ethics. Craig Wisda has been in the Los Angeles Underground scene for many years, having played bass with 1980s LA music critically-endorsed band, the Spoilers. On this, his first solo record, he stretches out well beyond the borders of New Wave or Power Pop monikers.
The CD starts off with I Want It Now, which can only be described stylistically as Cream meets PiL. Always Second Best conjures up the angst and keyboards of Depeche Mode. The lyrically challenged Electric Girl has a magnetic hook with a rocking backbeat. Like his mentor, alleged Spoilers leader, Dean Stefan, Craig is a shameless rhymer. Spoilers chestnuts are well represented here, as Wisda covers My Obsession from Stefan, Start Over Again by Chris Hickey, and does a remake of his own Mr. X. He serves up each number faithfully, apparently oblivious to any pop music stylistic changes since about 1993. This is the 00s after all, retro is cool!
No one on planet Earth can possibly know what There Is A Blue House is about, but it is sonically gripping nevertheless. Further riddles abound in Oh My Stars and Through A Glass, Darkly. The barnstorming Riot Grrrl Next Door sounds like it was crafted from National Inquirer headlines. The gut-wrenching lyrics from Randy Hudspeth to Stay Inside Your Circle are perfectly complemented by the passionate guitar work Wisda employs, recalling Neil Young at his very best. Who knew bass players could play lead guitar like that? Ending the record is the melancholy mandolin-driven powerhouse ballad Valley Of Eternal Tears.
One assumes that Wisda plays all the instruments and sings all the vocals on this record. However, for some unnecessary reason, he gives himself credit as producer. Note to Craig: the listening audience is not going to mistake the production quality with that of Rick Rubin or Steve Lillywhite. All in all though, this is a very satisfactory debut by an LA native son.
