About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

On Throwing Copper, Live tightened their sound, added crashing crescendos for dramatic effect, and injected some anger into their sound and songwriting. They also eased up a bit on the Eastern philosophy; the result is a more cohesive, memorable record overall, and quite an improvement from the sometimes overly precious Mental Jewelry. And for all of Mental Jewelry's ideologies, Throwing Copper is ultimately a more passionate and successful album, thanks to tracks like "I Alone," "Selling the Drama," and "All Over You," all of which received heavy radio play. The rebirth-themed "Lightning Crashes," the album's biggest hit, was written in memory of Barbara Lewis, a classmate who was killed by a drunk driver in 1993. Other standouts include the Kurt Cobain/Courtney Love-inspired "Stage," the apocalyptic "White, Discussion," the bass-driven, obsessive "Iris," and the dark "Dam at Otter Creek." Of course, Ed Kowalczyk couldn't resist throwing in a song like "T.B.D." (for the Tibetan Book of the Dead), based on Aldous Huxley's slow descent into death, aided by heroin. Its melodrama is a bit much, even for Live, and is just a sign of things to come on their next album, Secret Samadhi. But Throwing Copper is still a huge improvement from Mental Jewelry, and is the least overtly preachy Live album to date. Gina Boldman, All Music Guide

July 16, 2004: I have been such a huge fan of Live and I didnt even know it. The radio has played their stuff for a REALLY long time and Im always like "who are these songs by?" Finally my friend comes over and she brings this cd and she said "you will know some of the songs that are on here." im like i hardly know them but sure enough she was right. so I of course had to burn it and now having this cd and knowing who sings these songs make me feel sooo HAPPY. This is one of my favorite cds. Thank you chelsea!

Highly recommended!by Anonymous

April 28, 2003: Live is often described as being "pseudo-grunge" and although I am a huge fan of grunge, I think that there style is much more mature than that. This album displays their musicianship and is my favorite of the ones they have done. Plus, it's just great to listen to!
