Review

Building somber, vaguely ominous songs from slabs of textured, melodic guitar rock, Swell don't lend themselves to easy summations. For All the Beautiful People features a continuing (from 1993's 41) emphasis on album cohesion, employing a brooding loop of "rainy night" sound effects (on "Pink Pink Rain") to bridge the two "sections" of the album--an introspective, darker first half and a more upbeat second half. The splendor of the album, however, is in the individual passages, such as the lilting woodwind that runs through "Something to Do" or the fuzzy guitar line that shakes up "Blackmilk." Like interpreting beautiful carvings on ancient cave walls, sorting out For All the Beautiful People's juicy bits proves to be a pleasurably befuddling endeavor when such lovely discoveries lie waiting in Swell's musical catacombs. --Matthew Cooke
