Oh, for what it's worth, from a post I made on Junk:
Speaking of Belle and Sebastian, the new one is a sun-kissed bit of pop.
Trevor Horn produces the band and they have a focus that I've not seen on
previous recordings. The only slightly dodgy song is the last track, which
sounds like the Buggles covering Tommy Tutone.
That's the short version. It'll take a few more listens before it sinks it properly, but let me tell you, the opening song is so perfect, so funny, so damned sexy, that you'll smile for an hour after hearing it.
