Review

Goodness's second release is a mixed bag of throaty rock tunes with a decidedly retro feel. Your tolerance for the Seattle-based five-piece may depend on your love of all things '80s, since frontwoman Carrie Akre bears an uncanny vocal resemblance to the Wilson sisters from Heart and Pat Benatar, although she also recalls Melissa Etheridge on some of the huskier moments. While not a bad release, Anthem does have its woes, though they are relegated mostly to the freshness department. Rock numbers like "Bitter Man" and the title cut are standard but competent rock numbers with just enough sizzle to singe the ear into a heated state of interest. While the no-frills rock attack is harmless enough, Goodness never seem to go for what Spinal Tap once called "that push over the cliff." In the end, Anthem isn't about going all the way up to 11 but instead giving the people what they want. --Jason Josephes
