Watch Bob, and watch him close. See if you can catch him slippin�. You never will, because this plunging draft horse of the VOLUMEN skins never does. Every beat, fill, ride...every damn flam-flam or paradiddle he plays fits as tight and snug as in those walls at Macchu Picchu where you can�t even slip a piece of paper between these stones as big as a Volkswagen Beetle. It�s a craft he�s honed in nearly half a dozen other Missoula bands, including Prosciutto, Saved for This Dark Dawn and the much-missed Spanker. The tireless BobJob is still foaming to rock long after his bandmates have packed it in for the evening, and, like Doug, he�s also an excellent cook. Keep him away from the chilies, though�last time Bob came to my house, he whipped up some 2:30 AM quesadillas that cleared the place out like a canister of CS gas.

Title: Review of Cries from Space

VOLUMEN - �(((CRIES FROM SPACE)))� (2002)

The best word I�ve yet heard to describe the Volumen would be �cheeky�. Definitely coming from the same school of rock as �80s college radio bands as the Young Fresh Fellows and The Dead Milkmen, there�s a playfullness in these tracks that I�m sure is annoying to some, jump-up-and-down great to others. Plus, there�s a sci-fi angle that�s hard for my dorky side to ignore.

The band�s from Missoula, Montana, and a good friend of mine spent a year in that town, working on a weekly publication. He knows the folks in the Volumen, and right before putting this post together I asked him if he had any good tibdits of information about them to pass along to you. He said �Uhh�umm�they all live in the same house together�they play great shows�they�re obsessed with outer space�they�re all from Missoula, Montana�I�m in one of their short films! You can see it on the Volumen website!� Gee � thanks, Dan.
