A Few Steps More balances the intimate charm of Monade's previous work with a slightly more ambitious, but still off-the-cuff, feel that should please Sadier fans.
-
UrbLush, engaging and quirkily accessible. [Apr 2005, p.102]
-
Making the effort to unravel the tightly packed layers and unconventional (even by 'Lab standards) song structures can seem downright daunting, regardless of how long you've been following Sadier and how many of her EPs you've devoured.
-
Sounds a hell of a lot like Stereolab.
-
Fleshing out Monade only reinforces what great chemistry Stereolab possesses. And that’s a few steps in the wrong artistic direction, especially if Sadier’s interested in distinguishing herself apart from the Groop.
-
Far more organic and tactile than Stereolab's work.
-
Q MagazineThe mood is still bossa nova night at the Marxist reading group, but that's not entirely a bad thing. [Apr 2005, p.123]
-
Despite the relatively spartan proceedings, there is a substantial amount to latch onto here.
-
Under The RadarThe songs here... are much more developed and better arranged than anything she'd done on her own before. [#9]
-
Though it’s soothing at times, A Few Steps More doesn’t really boast any kind of bumps, and it’s difficult to discern one track from the next.
-
UncutFrequently lovely but a fair few steps short of compelling. [Apr 2005, p.112]
