THE WORD FROM JENNIFER
ONES AND ZEROS is soul rocker Bryan Thomas' second CD release. This time around it's a home studio project. This time around it's overdriven guitars, big beats and layered vocals. This time around it's a darker sound, more aggressive and electric than the hip-hop folk of his 1999 debut "Radio Plastic Jennifer." And it's darker takes on similar themes - sex and race and art and God and the end of the world. Listen as he rocks his way through a dirty movie in "Camera." ("Sticky seats and floors, tissue dreams," he says.) As he busts that ass in "Holy." ("Just like Jesus I'm a black superhero," he says.) As he talks trash about race and art (and ME!) in "Jennifer. ("You think you're too big for Schenectady? You ain't big enough," he says.) How cute. Albany's Times Union calls Thomas' music "breathtaking... sexy... spectacular..." Albany's Metroland calls Thomas' music "megalomania... self-indulgent... narcissism." And ya know what? They're both right. Which is why you're gonna dig it. Rock and roll. XOXO, Jennifer |
