Funeral
Arcade Fire
Brilliant instrumentation and melodies are constant throughout, each song stands out for its originality. The album builds to Crown of Love and Wake Up euphoria, continuing through to Rebellion. And then before you know it the pace slows right down to a reflective finale with In The Backseat.
One of the best, most sonically and lyrically unique debut albums you will ever listen to. Sounds just as fresh it would have done in 2004.

The album peaks in the first half. Expectations through to I Could Be Dreaming are the standout tracks. The latter half of the album seems to mould into one and the songs don’t stand out as much. Still a half decent album with interesting lyrics. It’s very listenable (probably driving through the countryside) but it could be better based on the standard of the first half.

The Sensual World
Kate Bush
With all Kate Bush albums there is an element of intrigue and mystery. This is proved sonically with this album. The power and range of her voice is constant throughout with layers of atmospheric instrumentation. All mixed to never interfere with the vocals at centre stage but instead to enhance even more as the tracks build.
Highlights are The Fog, Reaching Out, Deeper Understanding and the incredible finale This Woman’s Work. I personally prefer The Hounds Of Love slightly but this is still a valiant effort as a follow up to the album that has defined her career.

The Cure
Great blend of gothic and electronic melancholy. The minimalist structure combined with the reverb turned up to 11 creates an intense, melodic atmosphere in the recording. It accompanies Robert Smith’s voice brilliantly. This album really shows the start of The Cure’s rise to legendary status.

The sound is way ahead it’s time for 1972. Utterly bonkers in places but strangely enjoyable psychedelic.

Liked Little Hands and Diana. The rest was not for me. The emphasis of a psychedelic core was a little overbearing.
