Punching in again with his ninth album in six years, Elvis Costello is better than ever on this year's model, ''Punch the Clock''.

The theme of this album is betrayal, but its mood is positive and undefeated, and most of the songs are upbeat and optimiistic, in a bizarre Elvis Costello sort of way. ''Punch the Clock'' seems the appropriate next step in the maturing of Costello, from the hostility and anger of his early albums, to the depressed ''Bedroom'', up to this, an enthusiastic and knowing assortment of great music.

Elvis Costello clocks in with a hit


Hilary Appelman

Punching in again with his ninth album in six years, Elvis Costello is better than ever on this year's model, Punch the Clock. An upbeat collection of contagious beats, surprising melodies and Costello's trademark tongue-and-mind-twisting lyrics, Punch the Clock is the perfect follow-up to last year's melancholy masterpiece Imperial Bedroom.

The theme of this album is betrayal, but its mood is positive and undefeated, and most of the songs are upbeat and optimiistic, in a bizarre Elvis Costello sort of way. Punch the Clock seems the appropriate next step in the maturing of Costello, from the hostility and anger of his early albums, to the depressed Bedroom, up to this, an enthusiastic and knowing assortment of great music.
