Lloyd Cole and the Commotions
Easy Pieces
Genre: Indie Rock
2.5 out of 5
I don’t need to review this. Lloyd Cole put it best:
"It strikes me that there's something really fresh on the first album which has been dragged onto the second album, and the freshness is not there and something to replace the freshness is not there either”
Well, actually, the absence of what it needs magnifies the issues I have. Namely Cole himself. He brings to his music a Lou Reed quality: he can’t really sing, he more of a poet but his poems aren’t all that great and the music that accompanies the words is actually uninspired and boring.
