Jinx

Not every act emerging from Iceland can be as evolved as Bjork and Sigur Ros. Take Quarashi, a lunkheaded quartet that rages against the Limp Bizkit machine, or whatever. This album, which is weighed down by the usual crunch-and-munch riffs and bogus hip-hop, is another sorry case of sound and fury, signifying squat. The most compelling argument yet against globalization.
