Album Notes This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Personnel: Skye Sweetnam (vocals); James Robertson (various instruments); Tim Van Der Kuil (guitar); Damon Wilson, Andrew Martino (drums); Jeremy Wheatley (programming, background vocals). Skye Sweetnam got her big break at an early age when her teen-rebellion anthem "Billy S." was tapped to appear on the soundtrack for the Mandy Moore film HOW TO DEAL. With interest in the young Canadian piqued, the youthful rocker entered the studio with expert producers, and emerged with her debut, NOISE FROM THE BASEMENT, a perfect mix of affable pop sensibility and nascent punk angst suffused with sunshine. As one might expect, most of the themes regard the difficulties of growing up, finding love, and uncovering hidden emotions. Like Avril Lavigne and Ashlee Simpson, Sweetnam was schooled in the edgier side of rock & roll, and even the most radio-ready tracks, especially the runaway hit single "Tangled Up in Me," hold a sense of chaotic spark within. Sweetnam's lyrics, on the other hand, cling to a sense of innocence absent in the music of many maturing teen-pop sensations. Songs with titles such as "Hypocrite" and "It Sucks" flow out of Sweetnam in an unfiltered and honest way. Given all its restless energy, NOISE FROM THE BASEMENT captures the spirit of a young artist discovering herself.
