Trust

Elvis Costello

The Ithacan

Is Elvis Costello really a Fat Italian? Probably not, unless you read random notes like Billy Graham reads the Bible. The good news is that Elvis is still the most prolific and resourceful pop tunes man ever to touch a pen and guitar. His new album does not come as a surprise; I just hope this review gets finished before his next album comes out.

Fourteen songs appear on Trust, and all of them are written with Costello's usual nasty-but-nice esotericism we've all grown-to love. Nick Lowe's production is snappier than usual, and Glenn Tilbrook of Squeeze along with Martin Belmont of The Rumour make appearances on "From a Whisper to a Scream."

"Clubland" sets the pace for the entire length of the album, so put your trust in Elvis' songs. Trust comes at a closely monitored brink in Costello's career and the reception will rest mainly in our trust in his music.
