Barenaked Ladies Artist Snapshot:

Most alternative rock of the 1990s was based on purging one's demons over a wall of distorted power chords, but bands like Barenaked Ladies showed that tunefulness and carefree pop ditties weren't completely extinct. Hailing from Canada, this purposefully nerdy group built a solid fanbase throughout the '90s who spread the word of the band's raucous shows and dashing pop through word of mouth and traded tapes, before breaking through commercially with 1998's STUNT and its number one single, "One Week."

Review

Mojo (Publisher) (2/99, p.91) - "...Achingly beautiful harmony-rock embellished by an astonishingly eclectic instrumental palette and topped with mind-boggling lyrics..."

Recorded at Arlyn Studios, Austin Texas in Feburary 1998 and Phase One

Studios, Scarborough, Ontario in March 1998.

"One Week" was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.

STUNT is another tightly wound, witty, melodic Barenaked Ladies album, with songs that range from dangerously manic to contemplative and nearly sweet. The slightly psychotic white boy rap on "One Week" employs wacky lyrical ingenuity, with such lines as "Hot like wasabi when I bust rhymes/Big like LeAnn Rimes." On the other hand, the charm of "In The Car" lies in its twangy alt-country sound and a sense of nostalgia for a more naive time. Barenaked Ladies' lyrics can veer awfully close to being precious, but they avoid crossing the line with a magical combination of intelligence, biting cynicism, and a refusal to take themselves too seriously.
