    very small week in the underground:

    evergrey-inner circle 4/27
    morgion-cloaked by ages 4/27
    nekromantix-dead girls don't cry 4/27

    Al:

    No, it's just another Krall record, I'm afraid. But instead of boring us with her under-considered versions of Porter and Gershwin, we get five or six Krall/Costello tunes plus covers of tunes by Tom Waits, Joni Mitchell, and someone else, plus "Almost Blue."

    My advice is to continue paying little attention to Mrs. Costello, whose pallid pleasantness always evokes yawns here. Or maybe it's just subtle, and I'VE NEVER BEEN GOOD AT SUBTLE!!!

    Their song "Narrow Daylight" has some good lines, however.

    Krall needs to go the Britney route: more boobs, less music.

    She doesn't have far to go. The cover packaging of "The Look of Love" looks like a Victoria's Secret catalogue. And not in the Bob Dylan way, either.
