I love these guys, its so great to hear so much energy that makes it through in the studio. They are great live and fantastic musicians, but I think they've been let down by the mixing in this album. I find the vocals way too quiet and in some songs it feels like there is peaking in the bass region.
Where as in "Waited up 'til it was light" there is a really fresh sound where you can clearly listen out for all the parts, the vocals stand up etc. Sadly in "Grace ..." it all seems a bit lost.
Still great song writing though.

Choose this album and shut up!
12 July 2010
Format:Audio CD
On the followup to their acclaimed debut album, "Waited Up Til It Was Light", Johnny Foreigner pretty much continue with the same formula that made their first CD a real ear opener (and comparisons to Los Campesinos inevitable): intense, catchy, guitar driven pop/rock with aggressive (and some detractors might say screechy) male and female vocals that all combine to form an infectious if rather messy wall of sound. For the most part their new album is a blast -- particularly on a hook laden pop stomper like "I Woke Up on a Beach..." -- though stylistically their music can seem like too much of the same thing at times. Thankfully the band succeeds at toning down their hyper aggressive antics quite a bit on songs like "More Heart, Less Tongue" to give the album a semblance of diversity and balance.
