...pudding, Co-opers watched their friends trickle through the door as the day ended. Over the sound of Bob Dylan's crooning on the first floor, pots and pans clamored for attention in the kitchen on the other side of the huge dining room. At 6:30, however, the mellow atmosphere vanished as students appeared from out of nowhere, forming a line that circled around the 8-foot, dark wood table laden with bowls of food. The white china dishes and plain glasses so familiar to the Harvard student are a rare occurrences here, otherwise replaced by piles of mismatched...

Gore and Eskew could hardly be more different in temperament and style. The mellow Eskew, 45, wears a David Cassidy haircut and has been known to show up at important meetings in shorts. But both are products of Washington prep schools who trace their roots to rural Tennessee. When the future Vice President was an up-and-coming investigative reporter and editorial writer at the Nashville Tennessean, his future strategist was sitting at the next desk as a summer intern. Eskew later made a reputation for simple, funny, devastatingly effective political advertisements, the most famous being a cartoon series...

And most such bands are aware of their forerunners. If you can't hear the Beach Boys in everything from ber-hip Elephant 6 (Beulah, Neutral Milk Hotel, The Apples in Stereo), then you need look no further than their official press releases...

...Beck of 1994 would. Beck's first album, Mellow Gold, was seeped in the highly personal and visceral world of grunge: perhaps the linchpin line of "Loser" was "chokin' on the splinters." The album captured a miserable white-trash vibe within a sample- and distortion-laden sound that reeked of personal "Beercan" experience. It was a slightly grating album that was heavy on engineering but still naive--or at least straightforward. With Odelay and now Midnite Vultures, Beck has left these Mountain Dew-soaked roots for something more rarefied and cosmopolitan. Even his voice seems to have gotten higher. Grooviness...
