Title: Where are the pop hooks?
Product review: I think the new Belle and Sebastian is weak - monotonous and uninteresting - and not much of a pop album at all. It's a huge step down from "The Boy With The Arab Strap" which was a wonderful album full of energy and irresistable pop hooks (A Summer Wasting, The Boy With The Arab Strap, etc). None of the songs on the new effort are very memorable, and they just drone on and on in an uninspired way. If they produce another album, I can't see myself running out to buy it.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
