[music, albums] February 6, 2003 at 10:22:00 PM CET Australian songwriting The Go-Betweens' new album Bright Yellow, Bright Orange has been released in Germany on Monday. I just listened to some tracks on the radio and must admit that I am quite enchanted. Wonderful understated melodies played on acoustic guitars almost sound like a relic from another era nowadays. But they are balm for the soul. This is the kind of pop music I heart. The soft voices of Forster and McLennan are pleasant as always and the lyrics seem personal and interesting. Somehow I have never really understood the appeal of this band before. Though I didn't listen to them a lot. I only own a Best of and some demos. The new album seems a good place to start. After Massive Attack's haunting 100th Window already the second album which should have a fair chance to become album of the year in my small music universe. Further reading:

mp3 of the centerpiece of the new Go-Betweens album at Clearspot: Too Much of One Thing. Just click on the cover. Apparently the first song where both of them sing verses. First Forster and then McLennan (after the "dadadada's") who imitates Forster's voice in the second half. A song written by Forster about McLennan who composed the melody. Absolutely gorgeous. ... link ... comment
