Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

Finisterre is St Etiennes sixth album, and their first since 2000's Sound Of Water. The internationally acclaimed outfit once again retain their emphasis on writing catchy pop tunes here, as heard on the first release from the LP, "Action". Delving into everything from hip-hop, folkish melodies and house, the team are as diverse as ever and have enlisted some intriguing collaborators for this latest outing. There's an appearance from Doves guitarist Jez Williams, which is okay if a little subdued, and a track featuring female MC Wildflower, which doesn't fare so well since the feisty young rapper simply sounds too raw for the flowery backing track. Similarly, it might have looked good on paper to use the voice of actor Michael Jayston--and it has probably served them well for live shows--but his vocals on the album (used as links between tracks) are neither here nor there. Punk "guru" Mark Perry was enlisted for the sleevenotes, hopefully these offer a little more heart and soul to proceedings because musically this is yet another example of St Etienne's eternal addiction to tepid sounds. --Paul Sullivan

2.0 out of 5 stars 頑張れEtienne, 2003/1/28
Sound of Water以来の通算6枚目が移籍先レーベルより到来。
CD屋での店頭でも申し訳程度にしか扱われなくなってしまった姿を見て
ちょっぴり悲しみつつも、彼等にはついつい何かを期待して止まない。
今作も商業的には今一つパッとしなかった模様で、それは残念ながら
Albumにも現われている気がする。

曲の随所に古い映画のトークらしきものを仕掛ける技法は相変わらず。
Foxbaseやso toughのポップ一色が好きな人には物足りないかも
しれないけど、何度も聴くたびに味が出てくるのはファンだからで
あろうか・・・頑張れEtienne!
