It Dreams, the debut album from Canadian outfit Jakalope, dropped on October 26, 2004, and it's the brainchild of Dave "Rave" Ogilvie, the industrial studio hand best known for twiddling knobs for Skinny Puppy, David Bowie, Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson. He started the band in 2003, named it after the mythical jackalope, and brought Katie B in alongside him.
What you get is glossy, hooky pop rock with a dark electronic undertow, all sheen on top and grind underneath. The videos spun a half-told sci-fi yarn about clones and hybrids, with Ogilvie playing a character called Dr. Evar opposite Katie B, and a contest on the band's website fed fans more clues without ever tying off the story. Stateside, the CD was only an import from Canada or Japan, though iTunes carried it. The band's real calling card turned out to be the theme to Degrassi: The Next Generation, seasons 4 through 7.
