A Grand Don't Come For Free by The Streets Heard this a few years ago and absolutely hated it, found it the other day and it's a lot better than I remembered. Some of the songs seem to get a bit caught up in the whole concept of the album, but overall it's an enjoyable listen. Only annoyance is Mike Skinner's pronunciation of some words,his flow is non-existent. |

I love that album, I find it a bit more interesting and enjoyable than their debut Scribble Mural Comic Journal. They manage to walk the perfect line between making experimental music and memorable music, like a dreamier Stereolab.

I love both albums, but Scribble Mural wins by just a little bit. I'll be interested to see what else they come up with...I think the next album has to be radically different. I feel like they nailed the hazy dream pop world in their first 2 albums, another one in the same vein would just be repetitive.
