Editorial Reviews

Hugely anticipated 2007 debut album from the Britpopsters. Recorded with long term producer Gavin Monahan at his Magic Garden Studios in Wolverhampton and mixed by Mark `Spike' Stent at Olympic Studios. The Twang are a gang but they're a hardworking gang, they're from the normal life lived in towns and cities across the country but they want more and they are getting it. Most importantly, they've achieved their initial goal; to make this record and document the world as they see it, the world as they, and their friends (who are a huge part of this story and this album), live it. They are the most talked about band of this year but they are also one of the brightest hopes to emerge from the UK in years. 12 tracks including the singles 'Wide Awake' and 'Either Way'. B-Unique.

Is it the early to mid 90s all over again? That's what I thought when I first heard tracks from an earlier EP, songs like "Ice Cream Sundae" and "Either Way". I've never fallen out of love with the sounds of that scene and it seems neither have The Twang. You cannot miss the influences from the Mondays, Northside, Inspirals, and Space Monkeys in this music. Check out "The Neighbour", which channels Northside like no band I know, for good or bad. The EP I easily give 4.5 stars to.

Now for the full length release. All the EP songs are present but alas they are easily still the best tracks. The "new" tracks are more poppy (e.g. "Two Lovers") yet unmistakably Twang. On the strength of the earlier tunes and "Don't Wait Up" on the full length, I'm going to rate this a 4. Put me in the "like" camp regarding the vocal stylings of the lead singer.

After seeing this album recommended in the UK Best of 2007 Lists I decided to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised. It grew on me immediately and I can't stop playing it.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Happy Mondays reborn - with talent, September 20, 2007

By 

Now and Then - See all my reviews

This review is from: Love It When I Feel Like This (Audio CD)

This is the Happy Mondays all over again, except with tons of talent, witty lyrics and a talented guitar player. Going over really big in England right now, but the wide use of local Brummie slang will probably stop them breaking the US market. But it's all the better for that, and if most Americans can't understand the words, don't fret - just put it on loud and dance around your living room to it all night. "Push Away The Ghosts" is the stand out track for me.
