by Christina FuocoSomething Corporate has had the misfortune of being dubbed a punk band by the powers that be, perhaps scaring off a few potential fans. The fact of the matter is that Something Corporate is a pure pop band with emo sensibility in singer\u002Fpianist Andrew McMahon's vocals. Potential fans can liken Something Corporate to Ben Folds without the snarky sense of humor. The Runaway is among the album's highlights, folding wah-wah guitar in with bouncy piano. McMahon sings If you're missing\u002FI will runaway\u002FI will build a path to you before the song collapses in a sea of feedback-like noise. The piano takes the back seat on 21 and Invincible, a hilarious ode to the legal drinking age: We're 21 and invincible\u002FCan't wait to screw things up. Not all of the songs are winners. North meanders along with an occasional hit thrown throughout. However, as clichéd as it sounds, there's nothing corporate about this album. It's a bona fide original.
