After a shaky start with the B-movie tinged When Debbie's Back From Texas, this album gets going with "Viewed From the Spire" and doesn't look back. "Crime," featuring avant-garde trumpeter Jon Hassell, and the acoustic "Little Star" (also included on the Romeo & Julliet soundtrack) are pristinely perfect. Nordenstam sings in a cutesy, girly way. Often it's difficult to make out her whimsical words. The music is dreamy, atmospheric, and at times, angelic. A choir is employed for "Little Star" and "Murder in Mairyland Park." Quite clearly this is an alternative album; if comparisons are to be made, let's just say that if there's a place with an interesting jukebox, Nordenstam's second release would sit nicely with David Sylvian's Brilliant Trees. Further gems shine through in "Something Nice" and "She closed Her Eyes," which closes with the sound of rain. ~ Kelvin Hayes

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Beauty lies in the eye of I
Is depression beautiful? It can be, if you are the one listening in. Stina's music is simply that, depressing, yet so very much of what beauty is all about. Expieriences are things we all have, and she masterfully tells us her story.

5 stars Marvellous Lulls
Simple guitar tunes are maybe the kind of songs that fit Stinas voice the best way. She sings very quiet - very close to the microphone. It feels like she's whispering directly into your ears, wich give the music a very human feeling.

Silent, calm and enormously beautiful... Great musical quality, sometimes a bit jazzy... This is one of those albums you can listen to over and over again and it'll only get better.

The soul and funk of the 1970s took a lot of beatings from white rock critics during that decade, but in the 1990s, soul and funk from the '70s spelled legitimacy and hipness in the eyes of various artists. During the '90s, worship of the '70s was a full-time occupation for retro-soulsters like Lisa Stansfield and the Brand New Heavies. Samples of George Clinton and Rick James classics were the norm for countless hip-hoppers. In Boston, one band that specialized in 1970s worship in the '90s was the interracial Rippopotamus. Their album Butter draws on such influences as Parliament/Funkadelic, Tower of Power, and the pre-J.T. Taylor Kool & the Gang, but it also incorporates rock and hip-hop elements. Rippopotamus isn't simply an alternative rock act that slaps their bass on occasion; they're an honest-to-God funk/soul band that just happens to appreciate rock and hip-hop. Michael Stevens is an expressive, gutsy lead vocalist, and Rippopotamus' tight horn section proves to be a major asset on infectious numbers like "My Nike Air" and "Pressure." Butter ends on a high note with the Bostonians' remake of Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love," which is given an imaginative funk/hip-hop remake. Although not the international mega-hit it deserved to be, Butter is well worth searching for if you're a funk lover. ~ Alex Henderson Formed in Amherst MA in 1990 emerged from the 5 College music scene that also generated alternative rock heroes such as Dinosaur Jr, The Pixies and Buffalo Tom, the band blended rap, rock, funk and jazz elements which quickly drew a local following and produced the bands first record " 'N Din Som".

Quickly becoming local headliners the band returned to the studio and released 1991's "R House", which topped local charts, sold well and created a buzz about the band around the region. The band also got a reputation for it's extremely high energy live show, which caused it to pack local venues.

In 1992 the band became the first local band to be included at UMASS' Spring Concert and shared the stage with many alternative rock luminaries including Mighty, Mighty Bosstones, Fishbone and The Beastie Boys. The band also began appearing at colleges and clubs in VT,CT and RI. In 1993, ...
