| "sometimes, like you, i look at mansun and laugh my zip covered orange jumpsuit off. but then i listen to records like this and forget any piddling, snobbish objections to their clothes, hair or regionl roots. like the bumble bee, mansun songs seem too ungainly to fly, but fly they do, right up beyond the official rules of indie cool. "electric man" is classic paul draper on first contact: queasy and treacle voiced to begin, huge and persuasive by the end, swept along by the sort of towering chorus that could topple empires........this is a mighty anthem of string kissed windswept soul rock" |
