Vaux

Editor's Review:

Hey angry intellectual youth!! Here’s a CD for you to exorcise your adolescent hormone-induced angst with, yet still feel that spock-rock aloofness that only post core bands with keyboards can bring. Vaux seem like a bunch of kids who augmented their mandatory supply of At The Drive-In records with a couple “Best of ‘80s Punk Rock” compilations, as their semi-complex musical arrangments move at a very old school punk pace and frontman Quentin Smith’s vocals have that grating nastiness that the kids have always seemed to love. But for all the well-manicured musical posturing of There Must Be Some Way To Stop Them, Vaux just seem to be a bunch of dudes hollering for no good reason. Maybe I just don’t get it.
