Pretty is pretty nice, but the promise of true beauty makes tough critics of us all. More ephemeral than Clor, more cerebral than the Rakes, Field Music has, like the Magic Numbers, fashioned a distinctive voice and near-perfect arrangements, but the songs hint at greatness nearly as often as they achieve it. I'm just saying.Īfter their first two singles, it's hard not to be let down by good-enoughs like the ambitious, briefly cacophonous 'Tell Me Keep Me', string-laden 'Luck Is a Fine Thing', and staccato, saxophone-blearing '17'. Meanwhile, the band's self-consciously complex, maximalist arrangements and Sparks- or even Yes-like vocal heights call up that suddenly-not-dirty (if prefixed with 'hyper') word: prog. I still say stupendous first single 'Shorter Shorter' was, true to its name, the latter album's flip-side shortened, haunted and harried by imminent mortality.

Second single 'You Can Decide' is the band's most immediately compelling track, with copious oohing, spastic handclaps, and eloquently stuttering chorus: 'So if you know, you know, you know/ Let me.' 'Got to Write a Letter' benefits from slippery acoustic guitars and fairly sharp wordplay, though none as adroit as 'I've given up thinking' from the album's rare sad song, the still-sun-dappled 'Like When You Meet Someone Else'.

The lyrics tend toward the commonplace, which if not beside the point pretty much is the point: 'You're so pretty/ I could talk to you all night', chime the Brothers Brewis, their sweet-nothings granted the wings of soaring melody. Maybe Hound Dog by Elvis (really it's a cover) or Always on my mind by the Pet Shop Boys.

Dual lead vocalists Peter and David Brewis swap quixotic, often-falsetto harmonies as indebted to Pet Sounds as to 'Hounds of Love'. The Futureheads - Hounds of love When I was a child, running in the night, i was afraid of what might be Hiding in the dark and hiding on the street, and of what was. That song, like the album's other epiphanies, is a sparkling construct of whirring guitars, eccentric percussion, windmill-tilting bass, and Andrew Moore's piano embellishments.
