The Ache is the name of the album, and I wish everybody in the country would buy a copy. I predict that it will still sound incredibly fresh in the summer of 2003, when it will be de rigeur in cars driving around town looking to stir up trouble. It’s an indie rock record, sure enough. What it’s got that everybody else doesn’t got, though, is that it’s suave. This is the missing ingredient from some whopping percentage of indie rock records, the absence of which scared most of its listeners away after the novelty had worn off.
