...dark roots. Skin's polite production might win listeners, but Love's displays of rude beauty, of a sad radiance that seems to come from a place beyond contrivance--those are the moments that make this CD spectacular listening. Just hear her morose, lyrical ramble over Erlandson's spare guitar on Northern Star; or the line in the enchanting Malibu when she breaks the song's sweet spell, growling, "And I knew/ Love would tear you apart/ Oh and I knew/ The darkest secret of your heart." This CD has pop skin, but it bleeds punk...

Surely there are soldiers with very powerful-looking guns, who spend their spare time digging through the neighborhood trash cans (including at times mine) to see if anyone has left a bomb.

Shippers are still not required to disclose to air carriers the contents of their...

...designer, whose reputation was built on clothes of spare Germanic coolness splashed with a kinky technotwist, moved to New York City from Vienna in March. It wasn't long before he had unzipped a few ideas that had the Seventh Avenue establishment agog. First, he showed his entire fall collection in teensy pictures on the Internet, where (the horror!) anyone, not just an elite corps of editors, buyers and fashion insiders, could have a look at them. Now he's moved his spring show, which takes place in the fall, to September rather than waiting (the nerve!) until November after...
