Anytown not bad either. so far feels like this project is at its best when its up-beat.
LOVE NOT MONEY - 6/10 - alright first half of this record ranges from okay to nah but the second half is really solid. Would say its worth skipping round if u want to hear a fusion of the smiths with hipsters take on 80s pop. if this was more focused this could have been something really good imo.
Best Songs: When All's Well, Ballad of the Times, Anytown & This Love
going straight into Baby, the Stars Shine Bright. first song wow they really are crazy diverse.
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - 3/10 - a way more solid album than love not money as far as direction and execution but i think a majority of it just isn't for me honestly. Too much of a straight forward cheesy pop album of its time for my ears. some cool moments though. it is what it is.
Idlewild - 6/10 - A lot more stripped back than the last one for sure lol. overall its a cool album. think I'll take the best moments of love not money over this tho tbh. will go back to Oxford Street & Goodbye Sunday for sure. Would rank this under Eden.
The Language of Life - 8/10 - Great balance of 80s pop and there smooth style. works really well imo. some great pop songs like Driving, Get Back Together & Letting Love Go.
Tracey Thorn goat???
Just found out that was her on Protection by Massive Attack. Legend
This hard
The most underrated duo of all time? Super diverse and there discog has got plenty of gems. Kurt Cobain put the lead singers previous bands album on his top 100 albums of all time list, 2pac listed there Self titled project at Number 5 on his Soundtracks to his life list and Tyler The Creator has given them multiple shout outs over the years.
