I'd written Belle & Sebastion off a while back on account of them being too whiney and lacking variety within their albums.
Maybe I should give their stuff a second chance.
The new(?) Kings of Convenience album (Riot on a Quiet Street) isn't fairing much better with me.
Seems trapped between Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel and Paul Simon's more uppity '80s stuff.
Quiet Is The New Loud was a decent enough album, but I think this one would sound better after a decent remix (à la 'Versus').
Maybe I've just had enough of that Scandenavian 'alt-pop' sound.
Towhit…
Now playing: Brian Eno & David Byrne - My Life in the Bush of Ghosts (1981)
