Despite it's thematic lacking, Matthew Good's White Light Rock And Roll Review is an excellent showcase of great songwriting and performing, and possibly 2004's best album. The songs display Good's venomous delivery (Alert Status Red), tongue-in-cheek sarcasm (Put Out Your Lights) and soft melodies (Empty Road) in a way that brings to mind (and surpasses) 1999's Beautiful Midnight.
