Customer Reviews
Brilliance at its most Brilliant
Wellington may have the best voice of any musician fronting a British band
his wails together with the effortlessly melodic bounce forge a great combination and really make the tracks 'put your in your place' and 'commercial breakdown' what they are pure GOLD!
the new wave, synth pop combo they have going on Raise the Alarm is used to perfection and never gets tiresome.
Worth the great british publics hard earned pennies
Criminally underrated
The Sunshine Underground have produced an indie album with just a hint of "new rave" (whatever that actually means) which is consistently brilliant from start to finish. There are no weak tracks on the album whatsoever. If you like listening to your music whilst walking somewhere (as I do), this album is great as it puts a spring in your step. It's really hard to pick any standout tracks as it's all brilliant, but Dead Scene, Commercial Breakdown, Borders and I Ain't Losing Any Sleep are my favourites.
Everyone's banging on about Klaxons and no-one seems to know who The Sunshine Underground are. Something's gone wrong somewhere.
Mix of the best
An entirely brilliant album. Track 2- Put You in Your Place: A track that no one could ever tire of. An intro that consists of a funky electro-rave/indie-pop mix of The Zutons, Hard-Fi and The Rapture; only real musicians could blend this frivolous combination into a consistantly successful and uplifting album.
It is appreciated that Sunshine Underground are compared to the artistic talents of Muse and Kasabian; credit to them. Is there anyone who would not take this comment as a complement?
