Total Slacker - Slip Away flac album

Total Slacker – Slip Away. As often, the constant '90s nostalgia is hit or miss. Total Slacker exists within that dangerous line between gimmicky and legitimate. The quartet - joined by drummer Zoë Brecher after the hit-and-run death of original drummer Terence Connor - isn’t shy about its ‘90s alternative influences, more a throwback act than a forward-thinking one. What saves Total Slacker from being a simple retrograde band, however, is rather than simply referring to the era’s musical aesthetics, these are Gen X characteristics in action - the misguided angst, the too cool to care attitude, the social detachment.

Slip Away is a decent album, but it makes me quite cross. Somewhere in here is a magnificently talented band who could make something very special indeed if they could only be arsed. Repetition and lack of imagination hamper the album and prevent it hitting the heights it could. But then Total Slacker probably couldn't give a toss anyway.
