...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...

Worse, who needs a beeper when most new cell phones come with a built-in pager? My phone, which is by no means extraordinary, even allows people to send me text messages or e-mail. The two-way pager--or enhanced pager--is supposed to save the messaging industry because it turns the once proud but dumb beeper into something that talks back...
