5 out of 5 stars Splendour.......2005-07-01

'Splendour' is right. This is quintessential Felt, with guitarist Maurice Deebank still in the band. The sound is mellow, melodic, understated, lovely . . . I wonder if Gary Ainge's drumkit even had cymbals; his minimalism is a major part of the effect of this music. 'Mexican Bandits' was released as a single - - a shimmering and driving instrumental. And it's the instrumental passages that work best, not to detract from Lawrence 'Lawrence' Hayward's breathy, (Lou) Reedy vocals and beautifully imagistic lyrics. It's just that the music is staggeringly imagistic on its own - - 'The Stagnant Pool', with its extended instrumental coda, is as languorous and humid as its title suggests. The effect is psychedelic, whatever the intent. And Deebanks's solo closer, 'A Preacher In New England' is everything The Durutti Column aspired to. Really - - this is a great mini-album, too short by half.

5 out of 5 stars felt was my world.......2003-08-08

back in the day..felt was the only band that mattered. Too bad you never listened to them. Now is your chance. Take it.
