2007 – MERGE

2. Keep The Car Running
3. Neon Bible
4. Intervention
5. Black Wave/Bad Vibrations

Not many bands can say that they were able to release three bona fide classic albums in their first three tries…but Arcade Fire is one of them. Right in between their stunning debut album Funeral and the exceptional third release, Suburbs, lays the powerful and deep Neon Bible. After the promise and success of Funeral, the band had a lot to live up to for their second album, and a sophomore slump would have been somewhat expected. But they were able to build on what they had done on the debut and make an even better album. Neon Bible has everything there was to love about Funeral and more…this album was mature, deeper, and sonically far ahead of what had come before it. Arcade Fire proved that they were the real deal, and that they had a lot more to offer than just one good record. Neon Bible was a stunning progression, and put Arcade Fire on the map to stay.

The best tracks here will stay with you. “Black Mirror” and “Intervention” are amazing, but it’s “No Cars Go” and the great “Keep The Car Running” that are the real centerpieces of this album. These songs are loaded with traditional and non-traditional instrumentation, smart melodies, and layers of beautiful sound. Arcade Fire, during this three album run, had it all…energy, songwriting, and a creative force that few bands can match. Neon Bible isn’t typical guitar driven indie rock…it’s driven by keyboards and violins and mandolins and whatever suits their fancy. Everything here works, and the rewards for the listener are endless. Arcade Fire gets lost in the shuffle sometimes as one of the great bands of the last decade, but they are most deserving. These three albums, with Neon Bible in the middle, are a big part of the great music that continues to be made to this day.

The collaboration between Shania Twain and Robert John “Mutt” Lange reached its peak in 1997 with the album Come On Over. Her third album wasn’t just a hit…it destroyed like very few albums in history ever had. Coming off of the huge success of The Woman In Me, no one expected this much more in the way of sales. 40 million worldwide. Twelve of the sixteen tracks were released as singles, with eight in the top ten. Three went to number one. Just in America. Twain and Lange had found a formula, alright. And it was, at least for a few years, a winner. But more than that. This is the album where the line was crossed into the dark world of pop country. And unfortunately, Nashville has never been the same since. So there’s that.

Come On Over has some great moments. “When” and “From This Moment On” are more country than pop, and are great. But those aren’t the songs that made this a smash. “Man! I Feel Like A Woman!”, “That Don’t Impress Me Much”, and the awful “Don’t Be Stupid (You Know I Love You)” formed the unholy trilogy of pop country excess. Fiddles and twangy guitars can’t hide the fact that this record is less country than pop, the keyboards are awful and out of place, and Twain’s trademark “whoo” is more than tired by this time. But none of that matters. Because Come On Over made Twain a massive star, it made pop country a thing that is chased to this day, and it defined Twain as less of a country artist and more of a pop star. All of which is too bad, because the majority of this album is not bad. Not great, but not as terrible as its legacy suggests.

Before she became the biggest thing in 1996, Alanis Morissette was the Debbie Gibson of Canada. She made 2 dance pop albums at 17 & 18, but by 1993, she found herself in LA without a record deal. She met Glen Ballard and signed to Maverick, then recorded Jagged Little Pill. Expectations were very low. Then a DJ at KROQ started playing "You Oughta Know", and the album sales skyrocketed. Jagged Little Pill stayed in the top 100 for over a year, one of only 4 albums to do so. All of a sudden, the door was blown wide open for artists like Tracy Bonham, Meredith Brooks, and later Pink.

Alanis has a strange hiccup in her voice that gives her a unique sound, and she sounds royally pissed off through most of the album. With sparse yet heavy instrumentation (only half the tracks are played by an actual band), angry and sometimes weird lyrics, and hooks all over the place, the album was in the perfect place at the perfect time. Dave Navarro, Flea and Benmont Tench are notable guests. It was everywhere you turned in 1996, and everyone ate it up. Who would have thought? It figgers. It remains listenable today, although the desire to hate it grows a little every year. The CD features a hidden track...an alternate version of "You Oughta Know" (the only real difference is that you can't hear Navarro's guitar as well), and a creepy a capella stalker track called "Your House". These days it sounds more like an attempt at relevancy than a true rock album.

Alanis has failed in leaps and bounds to follow up. She became wordy and confusing, with albums that lack the immediate shock and punch of this one....bringing the annoying qualities in her voice to the front. She released another widely ignored album in 2012, and has been working as an actress as well.
