Negative Positive
Title: A huge disappointment, to say the least!
Review: After the eloquent crisis of "Behaviour" and the utter euphoria of "Very", "Bilingual" represents a major anticlimax for the Pet Shop Boys.I was absolutely shocked to hear the monotonous, tuneless rhythms of Discotecca, Single and Metamorphosis after looking so forward to this album! It appears PSBs have tried to incoporate somewhat of a Spanish theme into this album, but they have not followed it through! What we end up with, then, is an awful pastiche of discordant Latin American rhythms and woeful electronica.Perhaps i'm being a bit harsh on PSB. The album does, after all, pick up in the middle with the pleasant - if innocuous - "Se La Vita E." And the album's highlight - "A Red Letter Day" - would have been certainly worthy of inclusion on "Very" or "Behaviour."Nonetheless, this is incredibly disappointing given the talent of the PSBs!
