Title: I'm writing this review because nobody else has yet.
Product review: The first thing that needs to be said is that this record is beautifully (and, from the sounds of it, meticulously) arranged. This band grows with every release, although I'm sure not in the direction that many would enjoy most (this could be due to the recent re-release of 1996's "Tigermilk" and 1997's three EPs. Anyway, the record. Rigid Belle and Sebastian fans will wrestle a bit with it, but surrender inevitably to its profoundly understated charm. Non-fans, if not yet ready, will actively despise it. Latent fans that simply haven't heard them yet to be sent into a tizzy by their beauty will be sent into a tizzy by their beauty. I adore it, and I am not afraid.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
