Performer Notes
  • This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
  • Everclear: Art Alexakis (vocals, guitar); Craig Montoya (bass); Greg Eklund (drums).
  • Additional personnel includes: Charlie Bisharat, Endre Granat, Phillip Levy, Julie Ann Gigante, Rafael Rishik, Renen Mandel (violin); Brian Dembow, David Waither, Matthew Funes, (viola); Erika Duke-Kirkpatrick, David Low, John Walz (cello).
  • Having always posited himself as the old, married guy of the post-grunge set, Everclear frontman Art Alexakis continues to explore this grown-up world on SLOW MOTION DAYDREAM. Alexakis maintains his observant, elder statesman role while warbling about the promiscuous bad-girl-turned-parent on the catchy "Volvo Driving Soccer Mom" and having taking a very Nirvana-like musical stance amidst the skewering of John Ashcroft on the pounding "Blackjack." Other targets include the nature of personal relationships (the churning "How to Win Friends and Influence People") and the struggles involved with battling ennui (hook-laden "TV Show.")
  • Although the trio's trademark chunka-chunka guitar sound continues to permeate every corner of their sixth album, Alexakis does add a few compositional nuances to the mix. A prominent accordion gives "Chrysanthemum" a slight South Bank flavor, and a small string section casts a melancholy shadow over "Science Fiction." Although it might seem as though Art Alexakis finds doom and gloom in everything he writes about, the old softie manages to end on a sentimental note via the harmony-soaked "New York Times."
Professional Reviews
Spin (4/03, p.102) - "...Punk, profoundly polished....The details Alexakis sprinkles into the mix keep things interesting..." - Grade: B
