Title: ...still waiting for them to sing "I like girls who wear Abercrombie and Fitch"
Product review: Yes, it's mellow, yes it's easily accessible.Yes, these French boys know their electronica.Yes, I can see how people can compare it to Postal Service.No, that doesn't make it good.The thing this album is missing is that elusive, intangible "edge"Ben Gibbard's voice provides the edge for Postal Service, the little tang to help you swallow the sweet.This is pure fluff, nothing more. Lyrically it's worthless. That's okay if the music can stand alone, but it can't. These guys' voices are so sickly sweet and overproduced, I couldn't see them anywhere else but on American R&B; radio. They need to provide the tang but they are only more sugar. Too much sugar makes you sick. And sleepy.If you want some nice nap music, some background for a coffee shop or an elevator, you've found your band. Sign em up.If you want to be able to differentiate any one song from the last ten you heard, don't buy this album.
