Negative Positive
Title: warmed-over Fleetwood Mac
Review: This record is a real disappointment, a banal collection of slow, mopey snoozers with none of the wit, sparkle, elegance and sonic delights of their previous releases. The Arctic-circle depression that pervaded "Gran Turismo" has morphed into a plodding, somnambulent world-weariness, minus the cool beats. Nina's voice is as gorgeous as ever, but the other players seem to be sleepwalking through their parts -- this just doesn't sound like a Cardigans record. Maybe Sheryl Crow's backup band, or Fleetwood Mac warming up while Stevie Nicks' Hummer limo is stuck in traffic. Is this the same band that turned disco on its head with "Lovefool" and retooled "Iron Man" into a sexy torch song? Sure doesn't sound like it.
