May 27, 2011Quite possibly the worst album I've ever bought. What Happened Kate? One trick pony?

Nov 27, 2012I bought this album after the stunning debut of Kate Nash and after listening to 'My Best Friend Is You' , I've noticed how much of a waste of time it was. The album is filled to the brim with lack of lyrical content and leaves me wonder how it got such a over-exaggerated metacritic score. What happened Kate? Did you catch Difficult second album syndrome?

The hit-and-miss nature of her words wouldn't be so noticeable if the music was more of a distraction. But the skittering sub-Motown fare accompanying much of this album fails to muster a chorus worth savouring.

My Best Friend Is You builds on her more conventional 2008 debut, Made of Bricks, with a punchy, almost dizzying mix of garage-rock bedlam, scene-skewering snap, and sweet girl-group melodies.

My Best Friend Is You hasn't got the immediate freshness of Made Of Bricks, and it can make for a disorientating, uneven listen at times. Yet it's never anything other than compelling and demonstrates that, despite what a lot of people thought when she first appeared, that Kate Nash could well be around for a good few years yet.
