Beneath the Leaves

"Beneath the Leaves" will leave you spent from its agonizing detachment, its angst and ennui, and the bone-weary ache of singer Janice Grube's drowsy voice. This is an intelligent, accomplished and eloquent pop band. There are no wasted syllables, no mind-numbing guitar solos, no obnoxious drum loops. Their somnolent grooves bear a certain defiance to most radio pop in a conscious though enigmatic way. The band members once flirted with major label success, but have seemed to shrug their shoulders at it, striking back by creating their own private sonic bubble that's both strong force and safe refuge. The album's opener, "6th and Main," sets the sleepy tone, though its mid-song crescendo is pure power pop. Comparisons will be made between Grube's voice and those of Stevie Nicks or Chrissie Hynde, but she hits closer to the raw nerve of Patti Smith. Every lyric is soul-baring. The bell-tone pedal-point guitar chords of "Until There's Nothing Left" stir bittersweet longing. By the third cut, "Words to Reach You," Grube, drowning in resignation, casts a spell. The band never hits what might be considered even a mid-tempo overdrive until the seventh cut, "Sugar," an upbeat corker that, even with its loping bass line and rock beat, still sounds dreamy. Credit for the sound quality goes to guitarist Greg Windell. Windell strikes a delicate balance between his reverb- and tremolo-drenched electric guitar strokes, masterful acoustic chordal modes and other fresh guitar sounds that touch the edges of alt-country in their jangle and swirl. "Beneath the Leaves" shows sonic maturity beyond Watsonville's last, " Faster, Please!" It is a superbly produced project, and emotionally satisfying in its raw honesty and painful beauty" -The Oregonian

Let me explain.

The other type of site offers free Ipod music downloads, but you pay a small membership fee. You see, once you are a member, you get unlimited downloads. This means you don't have to pay for any more downloads. How this works is that you are given special software which allows you to search for and download music to your Ipod. And normally, sites like this have the latest music to download as well. Some even have music ready to download even before it has been officially released.

But you know what? Many Ipod owners don't.

The Mac's release of the Ipod has been incredibly successful. You see, within a few years, the Ipod had dominated the market. And still today, it's is still the one everyone wants to have. But being the most popular player around, you would think that everyone would have it full of music.

In fact, many people have less than 50 music downloads on their Ipod. This is pretty strange considering that people bought the Ipod to download music to it so they can listen to music wherever they go.

The first site may charge you per download for Ipod music downloads. This means that for every song you want to download to your Ipod, they may charge you a certain fee. But if you want to get more out of your Ipod and you love music, this can quickly add up to be more expensive than your player. You see, 1000 song downloads can mean you spending over $1000. Is this type of site worth it? Only if you download a few title. But if you are only going to download a few songs, why would you buy an Ipod?

It's as if they are behind the wheels of a Ferrari, and only have it in first gear.
