Details: Amazon.caYou hear a lot of echoes throughout Ashlee Simpson’s Autobiography, but her big-eyed, bright-smiled sister Jessica isn’t behind a one of them. That’ll come as no surprise to fans and anyone who has caught the « darker » Simpson sister on MTV, which is responsible for hurtling the hard-edged « Pieces of Me » onto radio playlists across the country and creating a mini frenzy over this CD’s content. Stoking the gossip-fueled flames is track three, « Shadow. » On it, 19-year-old Ashlee spills her childhood resentment over her sister’s attention-gulping career, ending up on a conciliatory note that has the surprising effect of making the Simpson divas’ drama seem believable (« Everything’s cool nowand the past is in the past, » she sings). But serious music fans ought not to dilly-dally with the celeb stuff and dive right in, because this disc dishes up more than a lot of us bargained for. « LaLa » revs up the unsuspecting by way of out-and-out lustiness, « Love for Me » lays on the lovelorn angst thick, and the title track is a take-no-prisoners, love-me-or-leave-me rock anthem. Rippling throughout are cunningly malleable vocals, bending here for a kittenish Gwen Stefani effect, stretching there to sound Christina Aguilera-cathartic. Sweeter moments call to mind the indie sensibilities of Jill Sobule. More than others of her reality-show insta-star ilk, Ashlee Simpson’s is an autobiography that shouts, « bring on the sequel. » –Tammy La GorceProduct DescriptionWith a regular role as Cecilia in WB’s hit TV series ‘Seventh Heaven’, Ashlee already has a fan base & has been a fixture in many teen publications. At only 19 years old, she’s an accomplished talent. ‘I just wanted to go in & make a record & not worry about what genre it would be’, she says. ‘I went in to have a good time & did. It’s a rock record with a cool edge to it.’ Produced by John Shanks (Michele Branch, Sheryl Crow, Melissa Etheridge, Alanis Morrissette, & Unwritten Law) it features the first single ‘Pieces Of Me’.
