Phish - Round Room

Album Review - Round Room

Elektra Records America's premier jam band Phish takes a break from their indefinite hiatus with a disc that's remarkably mopey.

Although there is a gentleness about this record, after a few spins you realize it's a yawner that sounds slapped together. And the band hardly uses their secret weapon - percussionist Jonathan Fishman.

The best of this otherwise just OK album is the funkied strut "46 Days" and the whammer jammer "Waves."

The good news is that a new record probably means this Vermont outfit will be hitting the road for a concert tour.
