I won't be home this weekend, heading up north - where there probably won't be any internets.....
Before I go, I thought I'd drop this off: I've previously heard the single "Come Monday Night" by God Help the Girl, but never really got around to picking up the actual album - that is until a few months ago - when I was in Canada. I saw they were selling the album for $1.99. No sale, no clearance, that was the regular price. I couldn't believe it, I picked up all the copies they had in the store.
Like most album, there are some duds, but the majority of the songs are actually good - if you're into that sweet-girl-vocals thing. The few male exceptions, Stuart Murdoch and Neil Hannon, they are there to help sing and move the song along, not take the spotlight.
This is also a concept album, which few albums these days do, it's about a girl and her relationship (or lackof). You get a sense when you're listening to the little stories that this could be a great afterschool special.
Anyway, well worth the $1.99.
