OK I bought Air today
hmm.....It is a brilliant album, well worth getting, but I just can't describe it.
You can definitely hear a real French sound in it (not just 'cause of the French words!).
Sexy Boy is not really representative of the album sound and IMHO is not the stand out track. 'Remember', a synth-voice French sounding song is the best for me.
Also the guest singer on a few of the tracks sounds exactly like Beth Gibbons from Portishead and is also called Beth!
Northy Score: 8/10
well done NME. Spot on!
They are always, aren't they? Are you one of their journalists? Please, Portishead-the-lady-sings-the-blues are crap. Sultans of ping and northside? We were young and innocent, Claire.
