Negative Positive
Title: Well-produced, ordinary, and... boring
Review: At first listen, I was ready to like 'Angels and Cigarettes'. It's well-produced, and has some catchy hooks. The best CDs grow on you, getting better and better with every listen. This Eliza Carthy disc is not, unfortunately, one of those. By the third time through I was bored. There's nothing new nor original here. While the lyrics are interesting on the first listen, the music is repetative and totally expected. And that's really the problem with this disc. It sounds formulaic and pre-programmed. With so much original music out there, why bother?
