Music reviews of Lust Lust Lust
Music Review: Lacking in many respects
Rating: 3 Stars
I have all of the Raveonettes releases and Chain Gang of Love is still my favorite, and the other 3 releases are pretty much tied for second place, because they are all good. This release, Lust (one Lust would have been sufficient), is a very good release and if it had been their first release I would have given it 5 stars. Their sound was very fresh when Whip it On came out in 2003.
Unfortunately, the Raveonettes are simply rehashing the same old formula and production techniques over and over again. It works, don't get me wrong, I really like the Raveonettes, but the songwriting gets really stale and boring with just the one guy writing all the songs. I'm sure the hot blonde Sharin can write songs too, where are those songs? C'mon Miss Foo Foo, get those songs out, we're getting tired of Sunshine Rosey Cherry boy writing the songs all the time.
However, we do like Rosey boy's vocals and there aren't any songs on this disc with Rosey boy singing alone. Miss Foo Foo sings solo on a couple songs which is nice, but what about Rosey boy?
Every song on this disc has the exact same harmony vocal sound, and that gets really boring. You have to mix in the solo vocal parts as well, like Simon and Garfunkel, the Byrds, the Beatles, and all those smashing harmony pop bands. They had the lead vocal for part of the song, and then kicked in with the harmonies to great effect. Once in a while the whole song would have harmonies, like the Byrds Eight Miles High, what a great tune, with harmonies galore. But they didn't use that same formula for the whole album, they would switch it up.
Rosey boy and Miss Foo FOo are running out of steam. Hey, forget about mid-life crisis! You guys are talented and can do a lot more than you are doing right now. How about some psychedelic experimentation or some shoegaze space program soundtracks. You can do it Rosey boy, you can do it!!!
I like this album very much, but its nothing different, and i give it 3 stars because this band can easily put out a 5 star album. C'mon Rosey Boy, give us some of those vocals only the way Rosey does it best!!!
Description of Lust Lust Lust
This Danish duo have re-emerged with an album that perfectly distills the band's 60s noir-pop songcraft and fuzz-guitar clamor into a melodic, sensuous voyage through the layers of desire. Showcasing a broader stylistic pallete and a newly cinematic sense of drama, on "Lust Lust Lust", the band retains the unique, compelling combination of sexy pop songs and rock 'n' roll urgency that have made them critics' darlings. Features two North America-only bonus tracks. Vinyl includes a bonus 7-inch and full digital album download. Already dubbed "one of the first great new albums coming out in 2008" - The Tripwire.Six years after making their distortion-drenched debut with the Whip It On mini-album, the Raveonettes' passion for rock & roll fundamentals remains undiminished. The Danish duo's third full-length release once again celebrates black leather and white noise, saccharine sweet harmonies and sinister verses, and, most of all, the Ronettes' sense of order and the Jesus and the Mary Chain's taste for chaos. But give Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo credit for keeping things fresh even when using well-worn parts. The dreamy "Aly, Walk with Me" and stomping "You Want the Candy" feature loping grooves, scratchy guitars and the Velvet Underground's patented tin-can production style, yet like the rest of the full-throttled tunes that make up the disc sound defiantly modern. The Raveonettes may remain immune to fashion but their style gets better every year. --Aidin Vaziri
