Lillix

Looking for the next Avril Lavigne? How about four of 'em? Check out the Canadian quartet known as Lillix. They have an average age of 19, play their own instruments and write their own songs. Their gritty, anthemic first single, "It's About Time," has just enough gloss to turn Top 40 radio on its ear.

This all-girl outfit is spunky, pop-y and earnest, but its youthful sass is subsumed in the
superbright production and radio-ready calculations of its debut. Like Michelle Branch
with a better rhythm section, the four Canadian hotties rock out a little but never quite
escape their G-rated straitjacket. CHRISTIAN HOARD (RS 924, June 12, 2003)
