...sport-utility vehicles, which account for 18% of all U.S. car and truck sales. Chrysler has spent more than $2.65 billion to expand the interior and improve the ride of its new Jeep Grand Cherokee, which will cost about $250 less than the 1998 model because features like the CD player will no longer be extra. Chrysler hopes to overtake the Ford Explorer as the market leader. But moving up will be tough in the increasingly crowded SUV category. Newcomers include the Lexus RX300, which competes with the Cherokee on price but carries a luxury nameplate. (The Cherokee's wider...
Alanis Morissette's new CD, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, is her second shot at putting out a good second album. Her 1991 debut, the dance-pop album Alanis, which featured such lyrics as "You're just a party party party boy," brought her modest renown, mostly in her native Canada and mostly (one presumes) among people there who don't read lyric sheets. After her uninspired 1992 follow-up, Now Is the Time, which included a wistful song about standing in the rain outside a Rod Stewart concert, her career stalled. But Morissette's third album, Jagged Little Pill...
...Them Eat Pussy is electrifying. The whole CD is only twenty-seven minutes long, which means that each song lasts an average of about two minutes. Each track is loud, fast-paced and chock full of adrenaline; it's definitely the kind of music head-banging was made for. The music puts you in a completely jittery, violent mood.

...honest: you don't buy a CD called Let Them Eat Pussy to enjoy the finer points of music. You want to hear loud guitars, grating vocals and lyrics that rhyme "motherfucker" with "sucker." Here, Nashville Pussy delivers. Regardless of its flaws, the jolt of pure energy that they provide is surprisingly addictive. Although it's embarrassing and a bit alarming to find yourself singing things like "Wake up with my balls on fire/Sweat gasoline when I piss fire" in the shower, you'll soon find yourself hooked on Nashville Pussy's simple, energetic songs...
R.E.M.'s 11th CD in 18 years opens with a mysterious blend of overlapped keyboards with a low, pulsating bass in "Airportman," giving the album its mellow feel right off the bat. The overbearing power chords grizzly feedback and odd dissonance are gone, and the listener is left with more R.E.M. tunes to put on his "R.E.M.'s Greatest Hits" tape. "Daysleeper" exhibits commercial potential, but the music scene has changed so much that "Daysleeper" may be deemed just another good R.E.M. song by the listening public, rather than a big hit like it would've been...
