Bruser calmed fears that the

“People need to realize that

But some fraternity members

“The new policies, while a little

Cotton's
music all
washed up

By Stacy Coonlz
Contributing Critic

If Cotton Is King, would some—
one please overthrow the monar-
chy?

The new release from Cotton
Mather, titled Cotton Is King,
leaves much to be desired —
including originality.

Whit Williams, Greg
Thibeaux, Matt Horvis and
Robert Harrison —the members
of Cotton Mather — seem to be

oing through an identity crisis.
heir guitars and drums are
vaguely reminiscent of Rush. The

 

 

 

 

 

vocals, on
the other
hand, are

tion. This

Cotton Adarher sounds as

names straining
*** Good his voice a
*1: Fair little too
* Poor much to
reach
those Paul
McCarty—

esque high notes. And Thibeaux’s
drumwork borrows too heavily
from Neil Peart of Rush.

Harrison’s voice does not suit
the lyrics. On “The World’s Bou—
tique,” for instance, he makes “I’m
comfortable in my exile/Forget—
ting most of my problems” sound
almost nonchalant.

While some son s are well-
written, such as “En of the Line”
and “Ivanhoe,” most are not.
“Lost My Motto” and “Cross The
Rubicon” can be best decribed as
awful. The rest of the songs on the
album fall somewhere in between
decent and unbearable.

“Ivanhoe” is one of the two
songs that saves this album from
being completely horrible.

“He’s a Crayola beau , a per—
fect cartoon/A helmete knight
with a dusty plume,” Harrison

sings.
he hero of the son is “in love
with a girl he’ll never ow,” out
of time and place. It is a haunting
son and a good one.

he second son worth listen-
ing to is “End Of T e Line.”

“I was washed up in her wake/It
was time to sto pretending/I
could write the appy ending,”
explains Harrison.

In contrast, “Lost My Motto” is
a poor way to begin an album.
Cotton Mather is trying too hard
again. This time the group aims
for quirky, insightful lyrics but
winds up with dumb, annoying
lyrics instead.

Finall , “Cross The Rubicon”
may be t e worst song on Cotton
Is King. The band starts out with a
nice idea: “I’ve sold some
secrets/But I've ke t a few.” Then
the grou ruins it y adding, “I’ve
rolled t e best/into a big new
valentine for on.”

Maybe if tton Mather would
not re y on other bands so much,
it could develop a true style of its
own. There is a trace of individu—
alitytin some songs, after a search.

aybe if the band’s members
could stop writing songs that seem
to be pieced together from other
songs, the lyrics would make more
sense. “Ivanhoe” shows that Cot-
ton Mather can tell a good tale in a
son , even if “Cross The Rubi-
con denies it.

Overall, this is not the best
album in the world. It may not be
the worst. but it is close. Very
close.

”WA WITH A" ATTlTllllE Sandra Bernhard will hrin more than comedy to the Sin leta Center as she e owns son s
g . g '3’ l’ g
from her recent vocal release Excuses for Bad Behavior Part I in aUK concert that starts at 8 p.m. tomorrow.

By John Dyer Forl

Senior Staff Writer

E andra Bernhard can go both
ways.

Infamous celebrity and cele-
brated critic of fame and the
famous. Feminist and fashion
model. Critic of sexual exploitation
and Playboy bunny. Po entertainer
and anti—icon. Defemlhr of under-
dog causes and skeptic of the poli-
tics of causes.

Yes, and sexually too, as Bern-
hard is quick to boast.

Contradiction is a mainstay of
Bemhard’s charm, especially in her
biting, combative comedy. Bern-
hard, who performs tomorrow at
UK, combines the angry sass of
rock, a haute couture aesthetic and a
hipster ethic with such New Age
precepts as “Screw Guilt” and
“Feel Good Here Now.”

From repression to expression,
alienation to liberation and free—
dom from excess to the excesses of
freedom, four decades of American
pop culture are both exalted and
satirized by Bernhard: beginning
with the ’605 (“Be whatever you
are”), the ’705 (“What the hell, be
whatever you wanta be”), the ’805
(“Be more and get more before the
Republicans get it all”) and into the
’905 (“Oops You can't help what
you are”).

Today’s po philosophy is a sort
of beach-blan et a logia, and the
basis for Bernhard s Excuses or Bad
Behavior Part 1, her musica debut
released Aug. 28 on the Sony/550
label.

Bernhard’s latest roject features
a rarel seen side ofjihe performer:
that o vocalist and lyricist. Bern-
hard and her band, the Strap-Ons,
opened their national tour last
weekend in Seattle. The promo—

Bernhard’s career has included
stints as comedian, host of TV’s
“The A-List,” Tom Arnold’s wife-
