"I spent a few years wanting to produce things on my own to prove to myself and to whomever else that I was a competent and capable woman that wasn't dependednt upon men to do anything", Alanis Morissette says, explaining the decision to self-produce 2002's Under Rug Swept. Since Making that record though, Alanis had an important realization:"I don't love, love, love producing," the singer says at Groovemasters, the Jackson Browne-owned studio in Santa Monica, California. "I love collaborating and co-producing," she adds, which explains the co-production credits being divided between Alanis, her longtime collaborator Tim Thorney, and John Shanks (Michelle Branch). Free to concentrate on the elements of making music that she does love-writing, expressing herself, and being creative Alanis, along with big-time players like drummer Kenny Aronoff, guitarist Joel Shearer, and bassist Eric Avery (just a few of the musicians on the album), had put together one of her strongest collections to date. "What I wind up writing is often a hybrid, and is sometimes frustrating in the sense of people not being able to categorize it as easily as they maybe would like to", Alanis says of her music. And that certainly holds tru for So-Called Chaos, which freely moves between dance loops, her most explosive guitars to date, and melodic pop/rock hooks. Despite the musical variations, her sound is immediately recognizable. "I just love anything that's confessional and autobiographical and emotional and unapologetic, including instruemntation. There's a way that a guitar and a piano can express emotions that words cant", she says. -Steve Baltin @ Women Who Rock
