Stone Roses newie
Disappointed but I don't know why. Has a cornered hint of something reassuringly good. But feels like music contrived by a focus group in the offices of a major label. Sounds like PR-scripted tripe. Sounds like Coldplay. Why the fuck was Paul Epworth allowed anywhere near them. Parallels between Squire-Brown and Morrissey-Marr. Songwriting duo able to hit impeccable heights, writing together and uncovering something precious and infinite, timeless. Unable to ever recreate or reproduce those elements apart from one another, and Squire-Brown have proven that after 27 years, even reuniting doesn't make it any easier.
