Nikki Webster - Bliss Review

black-dot.gif

Artist: Nikki Webster
Album Title: Bliss
Label: Gotham Records
Bones:
Summary: It doesn't get any worse than this
Reviewed By: Sparticus

It was Newton who said that for every action there must be an equal and opposite reaction. You can't release best of albums by Nirvana and U2 in the same month and not expect something like Bliss to come along.

This is as bad as it gets. Some poor kid is going to get this for Christmas and what's going to happen is, in ten years time it's still going to be in his CD collection and he'll be trying to impress some hot chick and they'll be getting it on in his bedroom and she'll ask him to put on something sexy because she thinks the time is right, and in his late teenage lust he's going to reach under the bed and whack this blindly in the CD player and she's going to laugh so hard and it will ruin the moment forever and the poor guy won't have another chance for weeks because his parents are going to be home in an hour and it will all be Nikki Webster's fault.

Let's hope she gets a cocaine habit - Drew Barrymore style. Then Bliss will just be an amusing side effect of global equilibrium, rather than a serious attempt at exploiting tween stupidity by someone with a fat wallet.

In the end though, we have only oursleves to blame. Damn capitalist free market economy. Chairman Mao would never have allowed this.
