1.7 are heavy. Heavier thun all those
Guns N' Roses wannabes. Heavier than
this new techno crap Heavier than life
If all groups rocked as hard .is 1.7. we
wouldn't have to call it alternative music,
anymore. "Alternative" would no longer
mean Imtter-thnn-the-rest-of-thc-e rap-kids*
are-buy ing-these-dnys Roc k would once
again bo roc k
And 1.7 would be queens of this male
dominated world.
Women Whoa, heavy
Girls will Im» girls, and girls will he (letter
than hoys, as 1.7 has largely proven with
their latest release. Bricks are Heavy.
The first ladies of heavy metal, hard
rock, alternative music or whatever you
want to call it. bring their ac t to the KMU
Ballroom Wednesday. April 7, at H p.m.
Tickets are still available at $1.1.50 for Uni
versity students and $15.50 for the* general
public.
1.7 are traveling behind Bricks, the
band's big-label debut on Slash Records.
The album lives up to its name.
Mixed with cynic ism, sarcasm and a
dash of humor, the album nevertheless is
deadly serious, emphasized In the tight
sound of a chorus of guitars The group
attacks issues such as war. takes a swipe
at the country and throws its list in the air
for women's rights, which 1.7 has greatly
advocated.
Prior to Bricks, the group began in 1985
and. after going through several personnel
c hanges, released a well-rec eived album,
Smell the Magic, on Seattle's Slch Pop label
in 1990.
1.7's two opening ac ts — Love Battery
and 7-Year Bitch — are currently on Sub
Pop. having both come from Seattle.
All three acts are sure to make for a
physic al show Wednesday, hut then again,
these days even Whitney Houston could
get a crowd in this country to slam dance.
But what Whitney doesn't have (OK,
Bobby Brown doesn't count here) is heavy
sound. Heavier than bricks, even.

Since first appearing in the

’ll albums and has toured
continually while promoting
his own idiosyncratic blend of
blues, jazz. folk, country,
gospel, rock and reggae musii
Known as one of Americ a s
elder blues statesmen. Mahal
uses a musical method of per
sonalized mutation as he
twists the hlues into less fre
quently heard forms by slow
ing down rotiters. transposing
guitar tunes to piano and gen
erally remaking the songs in
Ins own image
' The only thing that matters
is to give the music all of your
personality you can nut into
it." Mahal said It's got to
coma from deep inside you to
really mean anything II you
try to sing the songs the way
everybody else does you may
be entertaining, but you're not
really sharing yourself or your
experiences You have to sing
your life if you expect your
musii to affei t anybody
else s
Self-taught master of more
tliun a dozen instruments, Taj
Mahal is also an accom
plished writer, arranger and
actor,
Kugene's Walker l Ryan is
recognized us "one of the
finest Country Blues artists
this side of the Mississippi."
according to BluesNotes His
skilled guitar pit king, expres
sive singing and dynamic
style is heavily influent ed by
the great blues players and
reflects his desire to absorb
the feel of the blues and not
merely imitate
