Hit: 1 Stars
There's a kind of grim, depressing inevitability about this.
It's like the stone thrown up by a lorry that hits YOUR windscreen or you agonizingly realising that brown lump under your shoe isn't a dropped Mars bar or some clogged up leaves....
'SFG' works like this; something hurtles towards you, you think it's gonna be really painful and bad......and it is.
Apart from giving me the raving needle, there is SO much fundamentally wrong with 'SFG'. It doesn't work on ANY level, it can't be sympathetically reviewed in any context, even sarcastically.
It's a flat, eggy pancake of an album. It's a desperate worry as to what kind of rhino-headed cabbage would consider that this in any way resembles good music. It scores nought in the melody stakes, nought on the lyrical scale, but it wins handsomely the plankton-would-find-it-insulting league.
They've tried desperately to produce it to decency, but underneath the surface shininess the cracks are showing all over the place.
The workings of this particular trick are wonderfully/horribly visible, involving that heady and ghastly notion that endurance and hard work are in some way substitutes for talent and colour.
'SFG' are grey and dour. Maladjusted socially inadequate noodles, who are touring the country as I type, under the grotesque disillusion that they are in some way a pop group. Their debut album indicates otherwise.
'She's So Lovely' is a disgrace of a song. 'James Bond' has lyrics a sub-literate loonie could better, and probably worst of all (an accolade I suspect it knows it deserves) 'Elvis Ain't Dead', a despicable runt of a tune, operose and overweening, twitches to death right at the albums heart.
Enough. 'SFG' is a somnifacient disaster. It has an air of resigned failure akin to that of a one-legged cricket in a field full of crows.
The Amazon night vista is despairingly star-less for this one, that's why I really wanted to like it - blow a contrary wind and all that, but not even in a satirical sense could you award this desperation anything other than one appalling star.
And that's the worst name for a pop group since Heloise and the Savoir Faire.
Scouting for Girls Poster
2007 debut album fro the Britpop/Indie trio. The name is both a cheeky pun and a beautifully rounded image; infused with the nostalgia of innocent childhood and boyish adventure, yet suggestive of maturation towards experience, adulthood and disillusionment. Inspirational, quirky, escapist, and friendly, their music is unashamedly nostalgic, mottled with loss, disillusion and a poignant lamentation for innocent past times. Scouting For Girls debut album is packed with potential hits including current single 'She's So Lovely' plus stand outs 'Keep On Walking', 'James Bond' and 'Elvis Ain't Dead'.
