Barenaked Ladies
The follow-up to Barenaked Ladies' smash STUNT, MAROON is another winner from the Canadian alternative-rock hitmakers. Produced by Don Was, the 2000 Reprise collection features the buoyant melodies and infernally catchy arrangements for which the quintet is known, but with a slightly more mature outlook. “The Humour of the Situation” (to cite the title of a song BNL recorded in the nude) can still be heard in these Steven Page/Ed Robertson originals, but so can more serious themes – which didn't stop tracks like “Pinch Me,” “Too Little Too Late” and “Falling for the First Time” from sailing up the singles charts. A digital 20th Anniversary Edition of MAROON has just been released, and the million-selling set sounds better than ever.
