5.0 out of 5 stars Great First Album, January 9, 2004

This is wonderful display of TCTC's ability to genre-bend. They're a band who you can't exactly pin down. STTAL is a bit harder and rougher that their sophomore effort, but just as good. "Panzer Attack" and "Been Training Dogs" are fast and hard while "The Lake" and "Murder Song" and more gentle, somewhat morose lullabies. 555-4823 is an experimental electronic track that not all might appreciate. If your starting out with TCTC this is a good place to begin before moving on. Definitely worth paying for.

When I first heard this CD, I really wasn't too sure if I liked it or not. After a few listens, I know I definitely do. Their style is somewhere between metal and soft rock - it's an original mix, and they also seem to have some cool techno influences in there. Best songs include "Film Maker", "The Devil Walks In The Sand" and "Let's Kill Music"

This review is from: See This Through and Leave (Audio CD)

Sometimes debut albums come from nowhere and are so self- contained, so perfectly referenced, that they're instantly accessible. I'm thinking, for example, of The Strokes or The Stone Roses.
Then there is that other sort of debut album. The disorientating one. The ones that are great too but initially do leave you lost, if slightly in awe. Think Public Enemy. Or Jeff Buckley.
The Cooper Temple Clause debut belongs defiantly to the latter category and is initially perplexing as you try to get a handle on it. So then you forget about trying to lazily find comparable songs or bands and just let the music wash over you.
The opener, ' Did You Miss Me ?', builds from dreamy soundscapes to the thrash-out ending which sets the tone for much of what follows.
This is post - Doves, post - Radiohead, post - EVERYTHING...
At times anthemic, at times blissed out and mellow, at times flailing and screaming; this is music you simply can't put a handle on.
' Film Maker ' is all angular, anxious guitar and finally a scream into the night which leads into the bass-driven melodic...attack of ' Panzer Attack '.
My personal favourites are ' Digital Observations ' and ' Let's Kill Music ' which demands that you " mean a single word you say...".
And then ' Been Training Dogs ' reverts to the thrashy menace after the comedown chill of ' 555 - 4823 '.
As usual, I've rambled on a bit when really I could just have nicked the enthusiasm of one of my friends when he stated :
" This is the future of music ! "
Well, okay. But The Cooper Temple Clause really is a rubbish name for a band, isn't it...
