With a sturdy voice, slick songs, a nice smile, and a macho name, newcomer Chad Brock has all the ingredients for life in the country limelight. And no, that's not necessarily a compliment (save maybe that part about the smile): such traits are a dime a dozen in Nashville circa 1998. The CD is replete with soapy ballads like "You Made a Liar Out of Me" and "Ordinary Life" and party-time pop such as the Cajun-tinged, girl-at-the-lake-themed "Evangeline" and the jangly "Bingo Bull's-Eye" (sample lyric: "It's the right girl, the right guy, bingo, bull's-eye"). Chad Brock might be instantly digestible, but his music is about as exotic as mom's meatloaf. Those in tune with current-day country tones might want to check out the debut of this Florida-born former linebacker; those into original artistry had best look elsewhere. --Neal Weiss

Thirty seconds into the CD-opening title track of Chad Brock's sophomore effort, you realize where you've been consigned: a place where "fate" means forgetting to have your mail forwarded to your new address. It's a place where mundane guitar riffs and obnoxious guitar solos rule, where the sound of a live drummer makes you yearn for a drum machine, and where loving a woman is "just like breathing." Poor gal. Apparently, making an album is just like breathing too--an activity that doesn't require much thought or passion. That title track is one of two songs that Brock cowrote; the other one, "This," offers synthetic handclaps and couplets such as "Your lips just seem to fit me / All this love is makin' me dizzy." No reason to become fixated on lyrics, however--there's also the stock production and bland vocals. Then there's the ridiculous new "Y2K" verse on Hank Williams Jr.'s "A Country Boy Can Survive" ("Computer man says it's the end of time / December 31st, 1999"), but we're back on lyrics again. Computers, incidentally, are just fine when they're used to post the two-bit animation on Chad Brock's Warner Bros. Web site. The real tip-off comes in the liners, when the very first thank you goes out to "Country Radio" (capitalized). Obviously, Country Radio is the primary receptacle for this kind of slight fare, so not since Johnny Cash's bird-flippin' full-page Billboard ad has a sentiment been more appropriate. --Marc GreilsamerCustomer Reviews:

Burly Chad Brock scored at radio with "Ordinary Life," a predictable three-minute drama about a haggard husband who bolts the suffocating trap of his life, and "Yes!," the true story of the singer's chance meeting with his wife-to-be. But as a serviceable performer with a pleasant, undistinguished voice and a nondescript style that teeters between traditional country and mainstream pop, Brock is only as good as the song he sings. His third album, which reprises those earlier hits as bonus tracks, is a case in point. "The Thought of Bein' in Love," which marries midtempo soft rock with pop sensibility, precedes the banjo-laced "Park the Pickup (Kiss the Girl)," a song that bypasses the suburbs and goes straight for the country boy's heart. Both tunes are custom-made for radio, but after that, Brock stocks his album with a grab bag of material, and most of it goes by in a blur: the sensitive ballads, the occasional edgy tune, and the yahoo novelty songs, including the spectacularly bad "I'd Love to Love You," in which the singer engages in heavy panting to get his intentions across. Brock is a big, likable cuss, to be sure, but if you need something more than affability from your music, better mosey on down the line. --Alanna NashCustomer Reviews:
