THE DAILY
COLLEGIAN
Friday, May 2,1997
By Keith Harrison
College Press Service
First, about that cool name: A Sneaker
Pimp, in Beastie Boy vernacular, is the
crew member responsible for keeping the
Bcasties ankle-deep in stylish gym fool-
wear.
Now, about the band: This British trio
more than lives up to the promise of its
clever moniker, having put together a dark,
funky and seductive disc that stands as the
best debut of the year to date.
"Becoming X" lures listeners with a
heady concoction of slinky trip-nop beats,
dreamy keyboard progressions, and heady
guitar drone.
On lush songs like "6 Underground"
and "Post-Modern Sleaze," Sneaker
Pimps play modern-day snake charmers,
setting trance-inducing melodies to head-
bobbing drum tracks.
Complete (and blissful) hypnosis is
staved off only by well-timed and potent
doses of guitar fury.
Out in front of it all is singer Kelli Day¬
ton, who has the kind of high-pitched,
slightly pinched voice that occasionally
threatens to break into a grating Betty
Boop chirp.
Yet she always manages to rein herself
in at the lasr moment, escaping from the
edge writ*-/vocals .that are ethereal and
mysterious one moment, surprisingly cut¬
ting the next.
She doesn't make a false move here,
and neither do her bandmates.

potency of the original, an allegorical
talc about humans being replaced by
look-alikes that pop out of seedpods
from space.
When fully grown, these creatures
look like humans and talk like humans
but with one key difference: They have
no souls. When Beau tries lo get Cassy
to submit to the bug. he tells her, "It'd
be so much simpler if you'd just let it
happen... Don't fight it." The lirwjs
could have come directly from "Body
Snatchcrs" and the theme is thrillingly
the same: Human beings trying to hold
onto the things that define "human."
"Invasion" is one darn scary thriller,
that's for sure.
