Customer Reviews excessive droning Some individual tracks do indeed bear St. I'm afraid this really just isn't their best work. Etienne's signature grace, but together the album lacks variety and becomes a soporific hum. The inserted british dialog reminds me of "tubthumper" and adds nothing to the album. If you're new to St. Etienne, try "Good humor. ". Masterpiece by St. Etienne Etienne. Najbolji album benda St. Pop savrsenstvo. Kada na jednom albumu nadjete Avenue, Mario's Cafe, You're in a bad way, Hobart Paving i Conchita Marinez, nepreostajevam nista drugo nego da se prepustite muzici i divnom glasu jedinstvene Sarah Cracknell. Savrseno! Album So Tough je obavezan za svaku ozbiljnu kolekciju. So tough Most pop music I find to be simply awful. It is rare for me to find a pop band that doesn't come off as cheesy or redundant. 95% pop music today is geared more towards the younger generation and has a short term life span. One of the few rare pop bands that I do enjoy immensely is the British group Saint Etienne. I discovered them when I bought "Tiger Bay" through my then record club several years ago. The music was incredibly catchy and had a good beat. From then on, I began buying more of Saint Etienne's music. One of my favorite Saint Etienne albums is the '93 album "So Tough". I still haven't heard the group's first album "Foxbase Alpha" so I can't compare this album to that album. The production may not be flawless (and over time would improve on the band's predecessors) but the music is still good nevertheless. I am particularly fond of "Mario's Cafe", "Avenue", "Hobart Paving" (one of my personal favorite SE songs of all time), and "Join Our Club". What I like about Saint Etienne so much is that their brand of pop music isn't dumbed down for the masses like today's pop music is. It is very catchy yet doesn't bore me with the same tiresome lyrics that I hear in today's pop music. This is what pop music SHOULD sound like. .
