Fischer takes on acoustic mold
BY WILLIAM MILLS
THE GAMECOCK
Indie rocker Kyle Fischer will
enlist the help of fellow musi
cians Mike Kinsella and Caithlin
De Marrais tonight at New
Brookland Tavern. The trio has
been collaborating for years, and
Fischer’s new release, “Open
Ground,” has brought them back
to Columbia.
You might remember a few
months back when acoustic rock
er Kinsella toured through
Columbia in a one-man band
called Owen to promote his self-ti
tled debut. He originally played
every instrument on the album,
but for the tour, he enlisted the
help of Fischer and De Marrais.
The concert tonight, however,
will feature Fischer promoting
his solo debut album “Open
Ground.”
He is also utilizing the musi
cal talents of his two friends,
Kinsella and De Marrais.
Although the lineup of artists is
the same, the focus of the music
is very different. The trio will be
playing new songs off “Open
Ground.” However, the truth is
that both Fischer's and Kinsella’s
albums don’t sounh that much
different. Both of the albums lack
volume and guitar power. The re
leases spill over with poetry that
bleeds and cries but never rocks.
The emotion of both albums taps
you on the shoulder when, in a
world of low attention spams, you
must slap someone in the face to
get them to listen. Like a whisper
in the wind, the message of the
music is lost unless you concen
trate really hard.
Fischer has abandoned the
electrified sound in his new re
lease, strangely similar to
Kinsella’s new technique. It
makes you wonder if the two
friends were making their al
bums at the same time and some
of the tracks from one spilled
over into the other. Omitting the
use of high-voltage equipment
left ample room in the recording
studio for a cello, organ and steel
guitars.
Fischer’s new acoustic poetry
style is a jump from the style of
his other group, Rainer Maria,
which is currently working on its
fourth album. This group is a
more conventional style of indie
rock. The strong vocals of
Caithlin De Marrais, the lead .
singer of Rainer Maria, are ac- ,
companied with upbeat emotive }

guitar rifts that make rock so
powerful.
Although Fischer's solo per
formance lacks the raw power of
Rainer Maria, the sheer pleas
antness of his poetry has the
makings of a dreary Monday
night. If for no other reason, the
concert would be nice to see three
old friends playing off each oth
er and building on each other's
sound.
Owen and The Kerouacs will
also play. The show starts at 10
p.m.
