3rd attempt at writing this review, and so far, it’s not going well for me. The thing is, whenever I sit down to write it, only positive things come to mind, which, i’m sure the band would love, but as a music critic it’s terrible!
So, in essence, i’m sorry about my lack of impartiality, but I LOVE THIS CD! From start to finish i’m singing along to, dancing about, and genuinely having a great time listening to this album. Perhaps the greatest compliment I can pay this album, is that at least half of the crowdsurfer team are going to see the band live!
Musically the album should be seen as a return to form, after a semi disapointing third album, the band sound tighter, the beats are brilliant, the harmonies instant attention grabbers. Perhaps there are some tracks that are not as good as others, but when the bar is this high it doesn’t matter. The truth is, tracks 3, 5, and 8 (Her words destroyed my planet, Delirium, and Pulp Fiction) stand out as brilliant as well as the ever impressive change of pace track 11, skin and bones.
I’m sorry, I could go on waxing lyrical about this album for many hours! But don’t want to bore you so, please, just trust me, go buy it when it comes out on the 22nd of March, you won’t regret it.
Oh and see you on the 27th in Manchester.
