White Trash was, at their peak of popularity, a one-hit wonder ("Apple Pie," from their self titled Geffen debut, was a hit on MTV in 1991.) But they were unfairly trampled by the Seattle invasion, as they were accidentally lumped in with the 80's "hair bands." Their music was better than that, and deserves better. The sound, punctuated by horns and tight percussion, predated "ska-rock" (I refuse to call what a bunch of Orange County white boys blow through as true ska music,) by a good five or ten years. Dave Alvin's unique wailing voice isn't for everyone. But if you turn on this CD right now, it's a refreshing change from all of the Eddie Vedder imitators who infest rock today. Si, O Si, Que? is a rip-roaring collection of fast, addictive rock.
