Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Three albums in, and Drugstore remains as impossible to pigeonhole as ever. Though they came to prominence at the height of the Britpop movement, their exotic and off-kilter music never really fit in with the new-trad ways of Blur and Oasis. However, this quirky otherworldliness has enabled them to outlast many of their contemporaries (where are Sleeper and Northern Uproar in 2001?). Songs for the Jet Set is their strongest album yet. In keeping with their Velvet Underground fixation, the twin ghosts of Lou Reed and Nico are still flitting around, capable of sending icy shudders down the spine on songs like the delicately pretty "The Party Is Over" or the music box lullaby of "Allegro Ma Non Troppo". Isabel Monteiro remains an intoxicating swirl of haughty cool and sex-kitten purr that, no more obvious than on the bug-eyed tango of "I Wanna Love You like a Man". Blissfully unaware of any trends or fads that might discolour their own perfect vision, Drugstore are content to produce classic guitar pop music that is as timeless and effortlessly-chic as a little black dress. --Billie Swift
