The Pre-Review Rant
My day has been a pile of crap, rolled round in crap, wrapped round a crappy stick, dipped in liquid crap with crap sprinkles. Firstly I had to get up at 9. "Stop being a wuss!" I hear all of you say. Well, screw you. I work late shifts. I have just contracted a lovely cold from a girl in work who is adamant she will work through even the black death and I have ANOTHER ulcer on the side of my tongue so speaking is quite ... ...clothes since I knew I'd be up early and would be feeling like poo for it. I run off into town to pick up a parcel and cash a cheque. Upon handing the cheque to the teller she looks at me as if I have fifteen heads and a rotating light show on three of them. Why? Because the idiot who wrote the cheque managed to write a different amount in words than was in the box containing the numbers. That and her 7's were too funny for the machine to recognise. ...

Additional notes
Album Notes: Four full years after 2004's SO-CALLED CHAOS, Canadian pop star Alanis Morissette finally returned with a new studio album, FLAVORS OF ENTANGLEMENT. While the former outing was informed by the ever-confessional performer's romance with Hollywood actor Ryan Reynolds, this '08 offering deals with the dissolution of that relationship, particularly on the piano ballad "Not As We" and the wistful techno track "Moratorium." The latter tune, like much of FLAVORS, is shaped considerably by U.K. producer Guy Sigsworth, who is best known for aiding Bjork with her icy electro arrangements. The chilly keyboard-laden atmosphere is an appropriate change given Morissette's post-breakup preoccupations, but the record is far from club-friendly--in fact, the guitar-heavy opener, "Citizens of the Planet" sounds like the singer is sitting in on a Korn tune, and the driving "Underneath" features chiming melodies that wouldn't be out of place on a Coldplay album. Although some fans might be initially bewildered by the sonic changes on ENTANGLEMENT, Morissette's signature voice and lyrics keep the album from being a drastic departure, allowing her to grieve for a lost love while expanding her musical palette.
Album Reviews: Rolling Stone (p.86) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[W]ith a vaguely New Age grandeur -- electro beats, Eastern percussion, orchestral arrangements -- amping up the drama....Morrisette is at her best on simple ballads like 'Not As We'...and the emotionally raw 'Torch'..."
