Re: 1R1R in ND
Well, it was clear the reviewer hadn't heard "Face made For Radio" cos then maybe he would have noticed the Pere Ubu cover, proof of their eclectic record collections, a point the reviewer sat on for awhile. He also didn't notice that they cover a Great Plains (the OH Garage-"punk" band) tune on the new one, if he needed more proof of eclectism. And way back, they covered Duke Ellington. Who are y'all talking about here? I know Clawhammer has done Pere Ubu and Ellington covers, but I'm pretty certain that isn't the group under discussion. Lance . . .

It's One Riot One Ranger, known to intimates as 1R1R. BTW, add my voice to the "poor reviewing" chorus. Whoever it was that wrote it (I don't feel like looking right now) seems to have allowed what he read of the liner notes to shape his attitude toward the whole album, and seems also not to have actually read what he read very carefully. It makes for a bad combination... Agreed. I wonder if he's heard the first record. A more informed opinion would have behooved the dude.

RE: 1R1R in ND
they still suck. they're a damned entertaining band, especially since they suck. Just because they have more nubile teenaged groupies than Hanson doesn't mean that they still ain't no part of nothin. they suck. but at least they suck with style.
