  Dead beat dad by Shane Smith



Voice of disaffected youth with much in the way of affecting words. You can literally feel the anger in "Dead Beat Dad" while "Perfect Kind of Love" is a distinctly disturbing reflection on obsession.  The white boy rap presentation on "Dead Beat Dad" does grate somewhat. However, "Perfect Kind Of Love" uses its lo-fi origins rather more effectively.  I don't know what direction Shane Smith is going to take his music but I think that it might be interesting to find out.
