4.0 out of 5 stars A massive leap forward, 11 April 2007
By IWFIcon - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
If The Pierces weren't two fantastically photogenic sisters (one of whom is stepping out with one of The Strokes) would there be quite the buzz around this album?

Maybe, maybe not. But whilst the clamour may well focus more than a little on the sister's beauty it would be a shame if that was all they were remembered for. Thirteen Tales Of Love & Revenge isn't a perfect knock-out album by any means, but it IS a very good one.

Sure it never seems to quite know what it's supposed to be as a collective whole, but it's a long time since the "concept" of an album has meant all that much to the world at large isn't it?

Thus the wonderfully misleading "dance beat meets Bond theme" single Boring can sit nicely alongside the alt-rock posturing of Sticks and Stones or the distinctly understated Ruin. All three are distinctly different tracks, but all three are also very good.

Boring may be the funniest single in years (by anyone) and is sung with such fantastic detachment ("Sexy boy/Girl on girl/Ménage a trois/Boring!") that anyone who is stupid enough to think they are being serious might just be able to persuade you that they are. As alluded to earlier though its hardly a representative taster for the album at large.

Indeed such is the kaleidoscope of sounds attempted on the album the last thing you could ever call it, even when the attempts don't quite come off - such as the addition of a fairly strong country "twang" to Lights On, is boring.

They've quite clearly upped their game from the folk-pop stylings of their previous efforts and they can but be applauded for that. Ignore all the press more focused on their looks and just appreciate a wonderful pop record.

5.0 out of 5 stars enthralling, 11 Jan 2008
this is an excellent album, from the first song it is intriguing and mesmerising. the songs have clever lyrics and music box style music with a dark twist. this is quite unlike anything i've heard in the past few years, totally refreshing and a joy to listen to over and over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Good!, 6 April 2008
I'm not really too sure how to describe The Pierces music, kind of like dark-folksy. But each track is really cool, imaginative and has a lovely dark undertone. Even if they're singing a love song there's still some twist. I especially love 'Ruin' because I think we've all been there when you just don't feel like wishing good thoughts on that person! lol! Also, the lyrics are just so great and witty, you find yourself smiling along with the songs. All in all, a great album with songs that you'll find yourself humming long after the CD's stopped playing.
