This is a great CD. This is Patrice Pike (you may have seen her on Rock Star: Supernova). She's local to Austin, Texas and her music is beautiful. I ended up with a couple of extras.

"If you've enjoyed any of Patrice's previous work in Little Sister or Sister Seven - get ready for something different and even BETTER. Freed of the shackles of the "corporate machine" and self-producing this album - Patrice and her band "The Black Box Rebellion" have reached new heights of musical freedom. These are not "run of the mill" songs with trite/catchy little lyrics but rather heartfelt feelings and emotions "set to music". You can feel the energy and the songwriting process as Patrice delivers "Sweet November" or "Wreckage". This is not a CD with one or two good songs...THE WHOLE ALBUM DELIVERS!
JOIN THE REBELLION..."

"With the breakup of Sister 7 and being dropped by Arista, Patrice formed Blackbox Rebellion and started her own record company. (Interesting fact: Patrice was a classmate of Erykah Badu.) The CD cooks on most tracks. "Jackknife Girl" is a sassy track with great punch. "Ms. Ramona" sounds like a renegade Patti Smith track from her heyday with a ripping electric lead guitar, "At least I'm living with a soul that rips the truth from heaven's lining." "Sweet November" has a softer feel with a pretty melody, "Oh wind, you blow me to my knees; Helpless rush of these memories." My favorite track that is riding high in my personal top ten is "Me & Smooth." Its bubbly rhythm moves so fluidly that it almost percolates, punctuated by the expansive chorus, "I could do everything, but without this love it would not mean a thing; so I'm coming home." "All My Love" has a sassy swagger. The CD concludes with the eerie stateliness of "Volcanoes." Although a couple tracks are slower and don't grab me as much, the high points here are ones not to miss. Cookin'!"
