Possum Dixon
Star Maps
[Interscope]
Rating: 4.2
I don't really catch what all the fuss is about the new Possum Dixon record.
The album really wants to grow on you. It tries. A couple of songs actually
succeed. Namely "Crashing Your Planet" and the post-uppers "Emergency's
About To End" with its crazy Batman- inspired organ riff. Otherwise, this
music- by- numbers Violent Femmes knockoff will see you in post- retro hell.
