Ross Murray songs. Actionslacks' 2004 release Full Upright Position is simultaneously an improvement over its 2001 predecessor The Scene's Out of Sight and a disappointing follow-up to it. The holdover 2002 odds 'n' sods EP Never Never Shake, Baby hinted that the band was poised to make a great leap forward in its sound -- but such a shakeup never materialized.

But that storytelling is not buttressed by instrumentation that brings it to life. Instead, the musicians, particularly guitarist Chuck Lindo, go through the motions, desiring only to not be in the way.

His congested nasal affectation remains an acquired taste, but upon getting used to it, one can find the essential heart in his work, particularly in earnest tracks like those two. "My Favorite Man," a smart insight into sons not turning into their fathers, sonically follows in the footsteps of 2001's reverential "John L. Sullivan." Scanlin also appears to flex his muscles for the full-blown epic he seemingly ...
