| Meaghan McLaughlins voice may be pretty on the surface, but she seems to be holding back a major outburst. There's a notable resemblance to Kristin Hersh in that voice, and she can write similarly haunting tunes. But whereas Hersh's acoustic songs come from a reasonably stable home life, McLaughlin's characters are all in various stages of disorder. Thee details -- alcohol, poverty, artistic squalor, failed love, late nights, and more alcohol -- aren't exactly unheard of in rock circles. But McLaughlin catches the allure of this demi-monde without romanticizing it. |

| Smorgasbord
(the band) supports the creative project with Shawn fronting the
group from behind the drumkit. The core band features the eclectic
style of bassist Shah Hadjebi (Society of Children), the manic guitar
rhythyms of Derrik Albertelli (Motokops 2000) and the bittersweet
textures of guitarist Mark Bowden (Zoux). |
