Amazon.com The first two albums from Better Than Ezra were recorded as low-budget demos and released on tiny indie labels, even though the second one, Deluxe, was leased by Elektra and turned into a platinum smash. The third album, Friction, Baby, is the trio's first with a big budget and an experienced producer (Don Gehman of John Mellencamp, R.E.M., and Hootie & the Blowfish), and it crystallizes Better Than Ezra's identity as a mainstream pop band relying on catchy hooks, straightforward lyrics, and top-40 arrangements (which in 1996 meant grunge guitar). Kevin Griffin, the group's singer/songwriter/guitarist, has excellent pop instincts, and the 13 songs on Friction, Baby are as pleasurable as they are unadventurous. --Geoffrey Himes Product Description From Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Better Than Ezra has been building a devoted following in the south and west since '89; Deluxe, originally released in '93 on Swell Records, became a surprise best-seller leading to a re-release on Elektra (eventually reaching platinum on the strength of the hit singles "Good" and "In the Blood"). Whether dark and brooding or bright and urgent, the songs on Friction, Baby are precise and irresistibly musical. First single: "King of New Orleans." Touring is scheduled for a full year to support the release.
