The Place For Emerging Women In Music
One of Music Connection's Best Websites of 2002!

   Amy Fox enjoys a good about-face. Her second album starts with a deep, slow gospel intro that builds into a pounding rock opera called "Undertow." She bellows, "I see the rage as it rushes on the quid pro quo, hurry up and hurry with no place to go," to thundering drums and keyboards.
   This sets the stage for the rest of her powerful offerings. She plays the piano, synthesizer, acoustic guitar, and uses her rich voice and wide range to bring a unique sound to each song. This in no way eclipses the contributions of the percussion, bass, and heavy-metal lead guitar. The result is very intense without being overwhelming. Throughout the album Amy's lyrics are prolific and uncompromisingly clever. Some songs flow into one another, keeping a similar theme, while others are decidedly separate.
   Shifting gears mid-album, the ballad "Say Goodbye" employs a classical Latin guitar line that gives way in the end to the electric guitar, changing the feel of the song but not it's sentiment. The speed picks up again with piano rockers "Human Driftwood" and "Love Day." She leaves us with a hidden track, "Away", as if as an afterthought. This slow, emotional song is stripped of everything but the piano and her voice. Amy's morphing album is riveting from beginning to end.
