Release Notes:
This was not was I expected! It seems previous single Kid Riot was a
bit of a curveball as, on Free Soup Social, I was expecting a full on
British Beastie-Boys. What weve actually got is Franz Ferdinand gone
hip-hop with healthy doses of Jurassic 5-style interludes for good
measure. 1830 and Creatures Of Habit for the greater part
musically could have easily been outakes from Franz Ferdinands second
album if it wasnt for the raps and scratches. Meanwhile, Kid Riot
remains a musical joy, bike bells and all, but in the context of the
album it sounds very much as if this is the bands Darts of Pleasure -
the catchy single that doesnt really define the band as a whole, and
who are, to coin a phrase, so much better.
Check out current single, and outstanding track, Old Skool for a good
idea of where the band really are. The hip-hop beats are complimentary
rather than drivers to their sound. The danger in the past of the
hip-hop / indie-pop crossover attempts have been the unsuccessful
marriage of two different genres but that doesnt really occur anywhere
on the album. However, Jacobs Ladder hints at an assured future in
the band - its hip-hop in this track as in most tracks, but again it
doesnt feel out of place in the slow moving lament.
A lot of careful thought has gone on to make neither part bigger than
the other. With reports of their live act being worth checking, its
certainly not a reputation thats been let down by the album and Im
sincerely hoping that Ill get the chance to check them out in the near
future - a rare thing on the basis of listening to a debut album.

Не знаю, под что веселится местная братва, но лично меня дико позитивит данный альбом. Отличное смешение стилей и фонтан энергии не оставят равнодушными даже людей, мало знакомых с данным музнаправлением.
Однозначно, один из лучших альбомов года!
