The Jayhawks
In 1995 this Minneapolis alt-rock outfit released Tomorrow the Green Grass, a watershed album that seemed to put them on the verge of everything—until cofounder Mark Olson quit for a solo career. Sound of Lies proves that the remaining Jay-hawks have wings of their own. With Gary Louris in charge, the harmonies are now mostly in the background, while the lyrics have turned darker and more elliptical. But this is the sound of a good new band starting to soar.
