Aiding & Abetting
"The online music resource"

23 March 1998 Issue 155
Subject: Green & Checkers Green & Checkers

A big bag of different music styles that all fall nicely into that vagueness known as "rock". The lyrics are most often spoken, or loosely rapped even, and the lyrical content is generally in the form of prose poetry. Sometimes there's a chorus, sometimes not.

The adventurous nature of the music helps to provide adequate background for the vivid pictures brought forth in the songs themselves. The feel is an unusual one; I often got the idea I wasn't quite understanding what I was hearing. Thought-provoking is always good.

Now, while the music wanders about quite a bit, it isn't particularly inventive, just diverse in its inspiration. Still, the lyrics pick up the slack. This is a verbally-driven album.

Strange, and that's good. Great? Probably not, but certainly intriguing.
