Giant Sand's ninth album represents a new peak for this fine and prolific band. Led by Howe Gelb and based in Arizona, the band roams freely between raucous, loud rock & roll and country-tinged balladry. There are definite parallels between this band's work and the work of Neil Young, especially his more sprawling efforts with Crazy Horse.

CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE is made up of some of Gelb's best songs. There's the cheerful and popish "Milkshake Girl," followed by the gorgeous "Stuck." The latter song melds a churchly bearing (complete with swelling organ parts) with a casually honest first-person narrative. The band plays with commitment and devotion to the material and to the moment at every turn. Gelb and cohorts have released many fine works, and this is decidedly one of the best to start with for the unfamiliar.

Additional personnel includes: Victoria Williams (background vocals).

Producers: Howe Gelb, Michael Dumas, John Convertino.

Giant Sand: Howe Gelb (vocals, guitar, harmonica, piano); Joey Burns (acoustic bass); Paula Jean Brown (electric bass); John Convertino (drums, kalimba).

Spin (5/93, pp.85-87) - Highly Recommended - "...probably Gelb's most straightly rockin' release ever....Gelb's lyrics are filled with rambling truth and trash-biting imagery, while his guitar work embraces an incredible width of style and invention..."
