Marah’s first album melds rock
with rootsy, folk-inspired vibe
MARAH from page 10
scene. Just like a nation turning its
lonely eyes to Joe DiMaggio,
Bielanko asks, “Where'd you go Mr.
Rocky Balboa?/Angelo Bruno what
has happened to you?”
On “It’s Only the Money,
Tyrone,” Marah slows itself down
enough to tell what sounds like a
murder ballad. It turns out to be
about a dirty river and »]1 the little
secrets it holds: “Well nothin’ was
found ‘till the brown river
flooded/And driftin' down down
came a lifetime of things/ Stolen
cars; cracked up handguns and bod
ies/ Given back, back to the world up
above.”
Bielanko returns to the river in
“The Catfisherman” and one of the
most demented fishing trips ever: “I
got a spot ‘neath the bridge by the
expressway/ Where the freaks shoot
dope and/ peddle their asses baby...”
Bielanko obviously has tongue
firmly placed in cheek - the condi
tions are hardly ideal. Later in the
song, he sings, 1 got a buddy who
swears he once caught a human
head.” Sounds like fun, huh?
After the first couple of listens of
“Kids in Philly,” I really couldn’t
understand what all the buzz was
about. Bielanko’s vocals sounded
buried under the clutter of too many
sounds and instruments.
After taking time to really listen
to the disc, the sounds started to
come together like pieces of a puz
zle, each fitting neatly into place.
Drummer Ronnie Vance’s offbeat
style, which at first bordered on
annoying, is reminiscent of Cream’s
Ginger Baker. Sometimes, even his
drum set sounds more like a percus
sion instrument than a rhythm-keep
er.
Marah’s influences could be
attributed to the tales-of-the-city
style of Bruce Springsteen, the rau
cousness of the Clash or the horns
and Wall of Sound-like production of
‘60s soul.
Bielanko’s harmonica work on
“Faraway You” and “The History of
Where Someone Has Been Killed”
dodges the Dylan-clone trap many
fall into and sounds much more like a
bluesman than a folkie. The latter
tune strikes with a fury rivaling the
grittiest of Rolling Stones songs.
Marah’s loose sound may be hard
for some to handle, but if you’re get
ting tired of the macho posturing of
the rock-rap craze or if you’re fed up
with boring, acoustic soft rock, then
Marah may be just what you’re look
ing for.
