My week album: Lake Trout - Another One Lost (2002)

"Another One Lost is a 13-track homage to the darker areas of human existence.

On their third full-length (second studio record), Lake Trout, a band often lumped into the jam band scene, move further and further away from that category. To move away from it, they blend modern rock and electronic, drum 'n' bass influences to create the sound found on Another One Lost, a sonically-rich, layered collection of Radiohead-influenced pop-rock. And while they're nowhere near as innovative as Radiohead, they do know how to follow the leader, and, in the process, create a burgeoning gem, a record that blends and molds various influences (such as the ones mentioned above), while still retaining its own clear path and distinctive bite.
The difference is that Lake Trout does not have the clout or big label backing that those other bands do. If you know of what I speak, you must go find this album at that cool indie music shop in the next town over or on the Internet. You won't be disappointed.
Another One Lost is, when all is said and done, a delightful electronica-infused pop-rock record that is hard to ignore once you've heard."
