Review
Perhaps you've heard Calexico profiled on National Public Radio, or had the good fortune to catch one of their celebratory concerts. If so, you've been primed to hear singer and multi-instrumentalist Joey Burns deliver some melodramatic both-sides-of-the-border rock buttressed by resonant acoustic bass lines, driven by John Convertino's lively drumming, and gilded with dual mariachi trumpets. This EP, which collects single B-sides and remixes previously available in Europe only or not at all, won't disappoint. It includes some cinematic, dust-blown instrumentals and two very different versions of "Crystal Frontier," a white-knuckled tale of dark deeds done amongst the machiladoras. But it might surprise you. There's also a down-tempo hip-hop remix by Two Lone Swordsmen of "Untitled III," a track that originally appeared on the Hot Rail album, and a vibraphone-dominated stretch of spooky ambient music called "Hard Hat." For good measure, the disc includes three CD-ROM videos. --Bill MeyerFull title - Even My Sure Things Fall Through - Always a work in progress and taking little or no time off, Joey Burns and John Convertino have assembled a variety of recordings taken from the European B-sides (3 Slang CD singles), as well as a Two Loneswordsman remix of Sonic Wind and an American Music Club cover, Chanel No. 5. In addition to the audio content, the band's 3 music videos, shot and directed by John Pirozzi, will be included as CD-Rom files for your screening pleasure. CD rom tracks are Crystal Frontier (widescreen version), Ballad of Cable Hogue and Black Light. 11 tracks. 2001 release.
