For their fourth and most cleverly titled album, Glasgow's fey folk-popsters Belle and Sebastian constructed another 11 songs that at times reach into new musical and lyrical areas.
Following secondary composer Stuart David's departure, de facto leader Stuart Murdoch divides the songwriting chores among the other members; yet what's apparent is the single-mindedness of Belle and Sebastian's song focus. The overall mood is even softer and more precious (if that can be believed) than their previous efforts.
Murdoch and Chris Geddes' "Don't Leave The Light On, Baby" is the band's attempt at a '70s soul ballad, a wurlitzer adding a music-of-my-mind vibe to a lovers' dissertation. Isobel Campbell's "Beyond The Sunrise" is biblical celtic-prog-folk, all flutes and acoustic guitar, while Jackson's own "The Wrong Girl" is an upbeat, country-ish lament with typically soulful Belle and Sebastian strings and trumpet giving the song an understated melodic kick.
Of course, Murdoch contributes a classic or two - "I Fought In A War" is a gentle away-at-the-battlefield tale imbued with the greatest sense of dread Murdoch's ever given a song and "Woman's Realm" is the kind of pop stomper Arab Strap was packed to the gills with, highlighted here by its increasingly quiet surroundings.
