Title: A Stone-cold Classic
Product review: This is the best album I've heard in years. I'm so glad I bought it. "Rattlesankes," "Speed Boat," "Perfect Skin" and "Charlotte Street" are simply brilliant songs, but of the whole album, there's not a loser in the bunch. It fits together and flows perfectly.The Commotions' music is close to a lot of what was bubbling underground during 83-87, such as Echo and the Bunnymen, REM, The Smiths and '86-87 Cure - all jangle-pop and silvery guitars. For his part, Cole pre-empts Morrissey's lyrical allusions and crooning by nearly a year. The lyrics are hauntingly high-brow and intellectual, but in playful, clever and endearing ways.All-in-all, this album is an overlooked gem that has simply gotten better and better with each spin. I can't get enough of it. Brilliant.
