Well, the good news is that they cut an album there. “Static & Silence” picks up where “blind” left off and carries the band to a new level. Its first album, “Reading, Writing & Arithmetic,” focused main ly on poppier music, while “blind” gave way to more ambient acoustic sound. “Static” blends the two togeth er into a nicely mixed cocktail of acoustic and electric guitars. What makes The Sundays such a fantastic band, however, is the same thing that always has - vocalist Harriet Wheeler. Her soft tone is so touching, so pure, so honest, so grab bing that there’s nothing most of us can do but sit in utter rapture. Thankfully, guitarist David Gavurin has taken his time to refine his skills over the five-year break, during which he and Wheeler had their first child and built a studio in their home. Instead of opting for the minimalist style of “blind” or the simple rhythms of “Reading,” Gavurin added another layer to his guitar, bringing new shades of com plexity to the band’s sound without overdominating it. From the opening chords of “Summertime” to the final notes of “Monochrome,” “Static” is filled with finely crafted songs, tales of loves long gone, memories forgotten and time passed. Each song is a story unto itself, well-told and pleasing to the ear. Even at the point when “Static” lets horns and orchestral sections play along with the band, it never loses that classic Sundays’ sound, mainly because it never leaves Gavurin and Wheeler’s guidance. With the release of the new album, one can hope the band will tour and come to a town near us at some point in the near future. Until then, keep “Static & Silence” on heavy rotation, and every day will be like Sunday. ] ^ - Cliff Hicks Ihnller rises above np-oti ranks GIRLS from page 12 and demands to be part of the investigation. Though reluctant at first, the two - each of them having personal stakes in this deadly game of cat-and-mouse - form a duo. At first glance, “Kiss The Girls” looks like a rip-off of “The Silence of the Lambs” or “Seven,” or even one of those badly made TV movies where the victim chases the captor. However, this film rises above all that, giving equal weight to both the roles played and the plot itself. While not a deep psycho logical thriller, the “whodunit” aspect of the film keeps the audience guessing to the end. Freeman is very good as the The Facts THIS: Kiss The Girls’ ‘ Stars: Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, Cary Elwes, Jay 0. Sanders Director: Gary Fleder Rating: R (violence, language, adult situations) Grade: B Five Words: Battle of wits and wills man out of his element, trying to keep a professional, pragmatic mind about him while his niece may be the next corpse found. Thankfully, he doesn’t just reprise his role as the tired, wise mentor that he played in “Seven.” Still, Judd is the shining star here. She doesn’t just play a kid napping victim who wants to see justice done, but also a woman who has her willpower tested to an inhuman extreme, from which she barely survives to tell the tale. For the most part, director Gary Fleder (“Things To Do In Denver When You Are Dead”) keeps the movie at; a decent pace, though there are a few slow spots. Still, “Kiss The Girls” works very well in both the thriller and dramatic arenas, and it is very entertaining. , But go with a friend, just in case the spooks get to be too much for you. y -.
