There’s no better soundtrack to getting by and falling in love as the world wobbles unsteadily about us.
-
These Englishmen have learned impulse control. Frontman Eamon Hamilton's playful yelp has given way to a sturdier sound.
-
You’d be hard pressed to say that they didn’t get it right on the first two, but Touchdown unites all that is great about countrymen Arctic Monkeys.
-
There are fewer moments of reckless genre experiments on Touchdown than there were on past Brakes efforts, and when there are, they feel purposeful, like the band had some alt-country (or quick punk song) quota to fill.
-
Touchdown is a concise, flab-free 35 minutes of music made by a band, which despite their collective CVs, probably wouldn't be picked out of a line-up.
-
Oddly, the once-acerbic group is now best at being sweetly lovestruck. Now they need another facet that works as well.
-
The band's third full-length, Touchdown, is more of a 10-yard pass than a score.
