Review
Rusty Miller sings in a voice naturally wise and a bit broken. It might be a punchline -- Miller's lyrics rely on quick, sardonic wit -- but it still sounds like bad news. Jackpot, his Sacramento quartet, doesn't let him dwell long on hard luck. The acoustic guitar track "When You Leave" and the piano ballad "Bring on the Chimes," are both reminiscent of Paul Westerberg's loneliest efforts. But most of the band's third album features sharp, high-energy pop arrangements that keep things moving briskly along even when Miller sounds like he'd rather… Read More be alone. "Throw Away Your Misery" and "Fleas on the Tail of Time" deliver funk-inflected rhythms with skeetering guitar solos and loosely controlled keyboard lines. The New-Wave chug of "Far Far Far" and "Hide in the Frequency," where Miller placates his demons with soothing harmonies and guitars, redefine what it means to be a miserable success. ROB O'CONNOR
