Cardigans are Back!, October 5, 2005
This review is from: I Need Some Fine Wine & You Need to Be Nicer Pt 1 (Audio CD)
This is the first single taken from the forthcoming Cardigans album "Super Extra Gravity". They have brought back producer Tore Johansson, who was absent on their previous album "Long Gone Before Daylight" and his influence seems to be quite big. "Long Gone Before Daylight" was a very melodic album and a great warm production, whereas "Gran Turismo" has a simpler and "colder" approach. Taken from these two new tracks their sound seems to be tending mostly towards "Gran Turismo". "I Need Some Fine Wine" is a pop-rocker perhaps slightly in the same vein as "My Favourite Mistake", without being as immediately catchy. Still a great song - and I rather enjoyed the video for it, too. The second track "For the Boys" is just as good, slightly softer and more melodic. Interesting that the song is not listed on the new album; which obviously makes this single even more worthwhile.
