What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic.

If this Maximo Park album isn't the most addictive, delirious, accomplished, energised, lovingly crafted & spine tingling debut you could wish for then I'm a girl. A big one. Just blooming buy it, OK!! The sampler knocked me on the floor & I had to play it to everyone I know that has/had/wants ears. The breathtakingly catchy singles are just the tip of the iceberg. All I can say is The Smiths, The Futureheads, Roxy Music, Queens Of the Stone Age & those cheeky Scots new wavers that tore a hole in the arse pocket of indie last year all rolled into one hysterical bundle of quality POP & seamless ROCK with depth & class. Who cares that singer Paul Smith resembles a paedo on crack? Initial CDs come with a cool little "Live In Tokyo" 7 tracker & the vinyl is 12"s wide with a sleeve & a hole in the middle. (Even Clint's backing this - that equals a Norman towers 3-pronged winner)

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.
