Details: Product DescriptionLavigne, AvrilAmazon.caAlanis Morissette, what have you wrought? Even a dewy-eyed innocent like Avril Lavigne can’t escape the big guitar angst of Morissette’sJagged Little Pill, the influence of which is all over the young singer’s debut like cinnamon on a bun. Opening track « Losing Grip » and « Unwanted » are two of the more obvious clones, while first single « Complicated »–as undeniably catchy as it is–borrows the finger-poppin’ groove of « Hand in My Pocket. » Oh well, for an artist not yet out of her teens,Let Go is quite an accomplishment. Besides the obvious Alanis-isms, the disc also offers a slick pop-punk revenge fantasy in « Sk8er Boi » that will make just about any spurned teenager cheer as the heroine heads into the recording studio « singing the song we wrote / about the girl you used to know. » (Older listeners–that is, anyone of drinking age–will cringe mightily.) And kudos to Lavigne for giving props to her small Ontario hometown in « My World, » where she sings « Grew up in a 5000 population town / Made my money by cutting grass / Got fired by a Fried Chickenass! / All in a small town / Napanee. » At this rate, she’ll never have to fill another bucket of the Colonel’s greasy product again.–Shawn Conner
