Quotes

American rock seems to have come to terms with the fact that it's now an essentially conservative force. Tom Petty and Sebadoh release singles ( "Skull' and How It Feels') bearing an alarming melodic resemblance, testifying that they're mining the same Byrdsy/Beatlesy seam. Neil Young and Pearl Jam cross a 20-year generation gap to discover that their soundworlds and worldviews are perfectly attuned. Rancid resurrect The Clash, complete with sore-throat English accent, spraying gob and punky-reggae riddims. Guided By Voices plan a Tommy-style rock opera. Even Royal Trux pare down their avant-raunch to a Grand Funk Railroad pastiche. Reverence and referentiality are all-pervasive; parricide and canon-busting nowhere to be found. The best anyone in America seems able to hope for is that rock will abide, will carry on much the same as always."
