Free Music Notes for Songs From Northern Britain
Free Music Review: Being positive isn't cool , but it's easier to listen to
Hit: 5 Stars
If you don't know anything about this band , I would say only that they will make you very glad you're not deaf .
If you enjoy harmonies and a 60's sensibility together with solid songwriting , then look no further .
The song on this album called AIN'T THAT ENOUGH is just fantastic - it is extremely uplifting and that is how the band's music affects me , though not all their songs have that sort of direction or mood .
I also recommend other albums of theirs such as GRAND PRIX , HOWDY and the latest one MAN MADE .
We need more uncool positive 'vibes' in this world and this band makes an important contribution to that , so they're actually fulfilling a purpose .
Buy and luxuriate in this band's world-view .

Teenage Fanclub were touted as the next big thing for three minutes after its 1991 major-label debut, Bandwagonesque. That album is still the band's best--a sly, effortless approximation of Big Star, capturing most of that band's charm with only a fraction of the emotional turmoil. Six years and a few music trends later, Teenage Fanclub were still writing and singing sunny, optimistic tunes that sound great blasting from a car stereo. Songs from Northern Britain doesn't match the band at its peak, but "Ain't That Enough" is the best Byrds knockoff released in years, and "Start Again" sounds chipper enough to make you believe no romance is too doomed to be saved. The band's three equal songwriters--Norman Blake, Raymond McGinley, and Gerry Love--are all incurable romantics. When written on paper, a lyric like "can't feel my soul without you" is easy to make fun of, but when their voices melt together with obvious feel-good sincerity, only a cynic could complain. --Keith Moerer
