What you say No-one has reviewed Echoes by The Rapture yet. Give us your opinion on Echoes by The Rapture. What we say This record left our Clint feeling happy. First up we have the long awaited new album from The Rapture. It kicks off with the magnificent 'Olio' - The Cure with micro-house beats. Never has anyone sung more like Robert Smith than on this song. The rest of the album is a varied affair drifting between wild angular left-field guitar rock with mental drumming to some ropey efforts -'Open Up Your Heart' and 'I Need Your Love' are cringeworthy. So its a mixed bag. When its good its very very good and when its bad...well you get the picture. For the uninitiated the best bits recall Gang of Four meets Public Image Limited meets Liquid Liquid meets The Cure. Echoes is on CD and LP

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
