''The Reputation'' is the eponymous debut album by indie rock band The Reputation. It was released in 2002 on Initial Records. Written almost entirely by lead singer Elizabeth Elmore, the album was well-received critically. The ''Los Angeles Times'' gave the album 3.5 out of 4 stars, saying that "() streaming anecdotes give the listener the feeling of walking right into the middle of life-altering events. The ''College Music Journals Amy Wan called the album "showcase for Elmore's powerfully biting lyrics and her passionate voice, dancing deftly between little-girl sweet and outright roar," and Robert Christgau of the ''Village Voice'' gave the album an A-. The album featured regular members Elmore, Sean Hulet (on guitar), and Joel Root (bass). Chad Romanowski, who played in Elmore's previous band Sarge, played drums for most of the album. The song "Almost Blue" is a cover of the same song by Elvis Costello, from his album ''Imperial Bedroom''. With Elmore on vocals, the rest of the band did not participate, while featuring former Wilco guitarist Jay Bennett on piano. ==Track listing== All songs written by Elizabeth Elmore, except where noted. # "Either Coast" – 3:27 # "Stars of Amateur Hour" – 3:30 # "Misery by Design" – 3:58 # "She Turned Your Head..." – 4:22 # "This Town" (Elmore, Charlotte Caffey, Jane Wiedlin) – 3:50 # "Alaskan" – 4:10 # "The Uselessness of Friends..." – 4:47 # "Truth" (Elmore, Mike Longo) – 4:03 # "For the Win" – 10:17 # "Almost Blue" (Elvis Costello) – 2:57 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Reputation (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
