Both solo albums from Outkast are instant classics

By Kip Praissman and Bart Elmore | October 10, 2003

In 2000, the dynamic, down home pair known to the world as Outkast gave birth to a new era in hip-hop with "Stankonia." The uninhibited compilation once again reinvented the group's style and begged the question among listeners, "What's next?" That question was answered when the duo of Big Boi and Andr 3000 came out with their spine-tingling double-solo album "Speakerboxxx/The Love Below." The album had critics and fans everywhere wondering whether the group might be splitting up.

Dido fights off the sophomore slump

By Vivian Chung | October 9, 2003

Most of Dido's fans probably discovered her while watching "Roswell" or listening to Eminem. People wondered whose haunting voice that was singing the theme song or the chorus in "Stan." But Dido has since been recognized as an artist in her own right.

By Jaime Padgett | October 8, 2003

As the lights dimmed, a hush of anticipation fell upon the packed Spaulding Auditorium. A short man dressed in a black Hungarian suit crossed the stage, walking towards a gleaming, black Steinway concert piano. Silently, Piotr Anderszewski sat himself down on the black leather bench and begins to play.

Costello not himself on 'North'

By Caroline McKenzie | October 1, 2003

Even from an initial glance at the case, something seems entirely different about Elvis Costello's new album "North." The cover art resembles something more like Dave Matthews Band's "Everyday" than the usual Costello eclecticism; the pop art of "Get Happy," the cubism of "Imperial Bedroom" or the splatter art of "Armed Forces." But whatever, it's just a cover.

Puppets mystify in the Moore

By Heather Strack | September 26, 2003

The art of Japanese puppetry appears like nothing else in Western culture. It reinforces the art of audience interpretation, with limited visual clues to the actual details of events.

Zevon's unique perspective is still intact on final LP

By Lindsay Barnes | September 24, 2003

Most people don't get the opportunity to attend their own wake. As Jeff Goldblum so famously noted in "The Big Chill," "they throw a great party for you on the one day they know you can't come." However, Warren Zevon's wake lasted for several months, and he was there for every day of it as he recorded his final album "The Wind." When he was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer last October, he made the decision to record as much new material as possible before he died and to spend his time in the studio with his friends.

By Rebecca Leffler | August 18, 2003
