In the liner notes to The Comas’ sophomore album, Conductor, lead singer Andy Herod thanks The WB channel. It’s a gracious gesture completely bereft of irony. And to further illustrate his appreciation for the people who brought you Felicity, Herod titles the album’s third cut “Tonight On The WB.” So why is this bearded North Carolinian obsessed with the channel that brought us (yawn) teenage angst? Well, after dating (and being dumped by) Michelle Williams—the not-Katie-Holmes actress from the now-cancelled Dawson’s Creek—for two years, Herod recorded this concept album about the heartbreak and disappointment involved in being taken out to the curb with the recyclables. The result is a pleasant 10-song journey that alternates between dreamy space rock and textbook indie rock. Songs like “Invisible Drugs” and “Employment” are catchy but ultimately wouldn’t wake someone up from a coma. Perhaps Herod should be a bit more selective with his inspirations for the next album. I hear that the daughter from The Gilmore Girls is still available.
