After their two other brilliant albums you'd be forgiven for thinking this is where they start going downhill to despair,not a chance.
This is everything i hoped for from a top band,fast,furious and fun.
IT'S A PARTY- good rocking track,nice start to let you know they're back.
WE DON'T NEED MONEY TO HAVE A GOOD TIME- very SUBWAYS,catchy and fast enough to get the blood pumping.
CELEBRITY- good point well made,another good rocking track that's ideal for a single.
I WANNA DANCE WITH YOU- keeping up the pace,soon gets you singing along.
POPDEATH- slows things down a bit,really good though.
LIKE I LOVE YOU- speeds things back up a bit,not the best perhaps,but could be a grower. I certainly don't dislike it.
MONEY- it's got a nice pace to it,the album remains strong.
KISS KISS BANG BANG- love it! Very SUBWAYS in that it soon gets you singing along. The chorus may sound a little silly,but i really like it,should be great live.
DOWN OUR STREET- it's right up mine,really good stuff. Great fun,nice feel,like it. Is it coincidence the word MADNESS is mentioned?
RUMOUR- can't fault it,no doubt another grower. A little different and it works well.
FRIDAY- it's got a great youthful sound to it,could well be a young people's anthem in no time. Very impressive that the album still sounds as good as it does,not a duff track on it.
LEAVE MY SIDE- a slower track with great guitars and a faster chrous to speed things up a bit,i really nice finishing touch to a darn good album. I can see my playing this cd for a long long time.
So there you have it. i can't fault it,it's a really impressive third album from a refreshingly stunning band with much to offer. I did get the 2 disc version,the second disc of which is mostly demos of what's on the album,but saying that,there's a couple of new tracks and very good they are too. Back to the album,i can't help but think there's a bit of a ZUTONS thing going on with some of the tracks,which i'm certainly not complaining about,but i just wonder if it's just me? However this is young sounding,professional and brilliant. If you like THE SUBWAYS,i'd say buy it,i think you'll love it.
