Details: Amazon.ca On their second Rounder album, A Brand New Night, Canadians Andrew and Peter Cash frame their doleful brotherly harmonies and angst-ridden pop melodies in an energetic guitar-driven rock framework that's a bit of departure from its alt-country-based predecessor, How Was Tomorrow. But the melancholy earnestness and mood of contemporary dislocation and romantic ambivalence that infused How Was Tomorrow have weathered the shift to more aggressive instrumentation on laments like "Shadow of Doubt," "Dealing with the Distance," and "Tillsonburg." A few of the new songs, like "Sweet" and the grimly sensual "Give Me Your Hips," offer fleeting respite from the pervasive gloom and uncertainty. Yet in an eloquent way, the Cashes glean something truthful and lasting from the rubble and drudgery of everyday life. It's what makes their uneasy journey so compelling and listenable. --Bob Allen
