Product Description Canada's great hope for pop nirvana has garnered raves from critics and their peers as well. The music is described as alternatingly moody, melodic, groovy and capaphonous. About the Artist By Divine Right is the love child of songwriter Jose Miguel Contreras, who has virtually lived in the studio recording the songs that has won the loyal following of just about every rock band and music critic north of the 49th parallel; notably 1997s indie rock masterpiece All Hail Discordia and 1999s beautiful Bless This Mess. The latter spawned the infectious Canadian Top 20 single Come for a Ride, which received massive play on modern and mainstream rock stations, and the video was in serious high rotation on Much Music... not bad for a bunch of earthy slackers. Good Morning Beautiful is a love letter to the universe, a crazy voyage of melody and charm, harmony and cacophony. The album took 14 months to make, each track a finely crafted and catchy song; something fans have come to expect from By Divine Right. From the "dream one-song parade" of Hugger of Trees and the Lou Reed/Motown influenced Sweet Lovin to the scrappy Medicine and Supernatural, Good Morning Beautiful is their most luminous and visionary achievement, transcending genres, and yet embodying the highest spirit and elation of rock and roll music. Back To You, which was co-written by Jose and Gord Downie of The Tragically Hip was the next single release, followed by Soul Explosion, which garnered serious video rotation at MuchMusic and was close to Top 50 radio.

balmy vibes
The opening song Dedication has a cuddly, lofty feel while Supernatural doesn't at all, instead scraping/winding guitars and ooh oohs. Soul Explosion is a single and eventually finds its way to a connective guitar. Stella Heart Ocean catches you with its flickering guitars and seaview lyrics, and the CD really bites into its juicy core with: Powersuit, an easygoing trundle, the continuing balmy vibes of Sweet Lovin?, the popping pulsation and dreamy influences of Angels, and then Hugger of Trees, a restless, rousing apex where their sound opens up, bursts, finds tributaries. Medicice acquires its own bright blend but we are back to the territory of the opening songs. One More City is a cool out song and Kick This Bummer is cooled out and pared down until its final minute flare up. Back To You is the pleasing last gulp of this colorfully flavoured concoction.MM,May 14/02
