About Great Divide
Like the Rembrandts before them and Deep Blue Something after them, Semisonic generally give every impression of being a slightly clueless major label A&R department's idea of what an alternative pop group is supposed to sound like. Though the songs are competently constructed, and one or two of the tunes are pretty enough, there is, at the heart of it, a curious empty feeling. Semisonic's songwriting mainstays, Messrs Slichter and Wilson, have unarguably great taste--Great Divide is very obviously what results of a lifetime spent listening to Elvis Costello, the Smithereens, the Smiths, REM and the Replacements. Unfortunately, they rarely display any sign of what it takes to communicate anything beyond the fact that they like cool records. "If I Run" and "I'll Feel For You" are both abundantly whistle-able, but the world would not be a remotely different place if neither had ever been written. Great Divide is all frosting and no cake. --Andrew Mueller
