Days of the new (1999)

EW's GRADE
B

Details Lead Performance: Days of the New; Genre: Rock

Prog rock isn't dead. It merely lay dormant a couple of decades, long enough to infect 20-year-old Travis Meeks, a.k.a. one-man-Kentucky-band DOTN. Like Roger Waters, he toys with colorful tones and textures and waxes ponderous in a schoolmaster baritone. Some tracks stumble awkwardly, but inventive oomph pulls this naif through. B
