Post- Psychedelic Furs Richard Butler can still write a tune
If you liked the slightly mournful sound of the last Psychedelic Furs album 'World Outside', and crucially, if you are a fan of Richard Butler's very distinctive voice, this album has plenty to offer. Having said that, and having had this in my record collection for ten years, I should confess to ruthlessly using the skip function on the CD player most of the time and concentrating on several tracks only, rarely listening to the whole thing.
'Half a life' is so stunning that it is one of those tracks where people often ask who it is after the first few bars, and 'Am I wrong ?' is just the epitome of Butler's brand of rueful romanticism. It's the kind of ballad that fits in everywhere from John Peel to Radio 2.
On 'More' he shows that he can actually sing with some technical precision when he makes an effort, and it has an overall effect reminscent of a carol more than yer typical pop song. The rest of it tends to slip past almost unnoticed to my mind, and it is thus easy to see why this band failed to set the world alight - more a case of preaching to the converted. And while he was never the flashiest of guitarists, I did miss John Ashton of the Furs underpinning the whole thing

This is New!
I've only heard one song by LSL, and it made me cry like PJ'ams Last Kiss - How much would you pay for a good song? i'm buying this album as i heard one song, but i think the album maybe one of the best albums that you'll may never buy. Chris UK
