Xiren – Trip-R

Xiren - Trip-R

Trip-R, Xiren

Xiren’s latest album Trip-R is nothing if not full. 13 tracks of all original music. Very nicely produced, possibly over-produced a little, but that beats the opposite. Trip-r makes most locally produced CDs sound thin by comparison. The package contains a twelve page full color booklet with lyrics to all songs. Some highlights: “Trip-R” the title track, has great blazing guitar lines to start and rocks good all the way thru. “Money Machine” has some experimental keyboard stuff that’s a little weird, but it works. “Jesus Was An Alien” has a distinct Beatles flavor. Hard to tell what he’s trying to say with this one, but it is kind of a standout, by virtue of it’s oddity compared with the rest of the album. The CD ends with haunting background guest vocals from Erica Brown on “The Mirage.” Overall an impressive album that leaves you feeling like you’ve taken a good long trip by the time it’s done.
