Paul Mollica, Odyssey’s lyricist, has the good fortune to have his original songs backed up by some of Western Montana’s most seasoned musicians. Band members Lars Pointer (lead guitar), Chris Starratt (guitar and drums), Mark Price (bass), Brock Gnose (drums and keyboards) and Lynn Vanderburg (saxophone) work together to lay down a danceable groove while simultaneously appearing free to explore the outer reaches of their individual instruments. And each song on Eternity’s Ride presents a different context for experimentation with different sounds—for instance, Pointer’s guitar sounds a lot like Shakedown Street-era Jerry Garcia on “Fallen Away” and like Queen’s Brian May on “Movin’ Along.”
Mollica’s lyrics are youthful, trippy and never too bashful to tell the truth—perhaps to the point that the listener may worry that the author’s cliché-radar has been jammed. Vocally reminiscent of The Samples’ Sean Kelley at one extreme and off-kilter alt-pop icon Daniel Johnston at the other, Mollica delivers his words with curious and hazy sincerity.
Eternity’s Ride strikes a precarious balance between Mollica’s unrestrained lyrical tendencies and the band’s sophisticated instrumental presentation—a collaboration that ultimately hits more than it misses. (Caroline Keys)
