805. Turin Brakes - The Optimist LP


Boy - this falls under a 'what was I thinking' column. I'm sure I had heard one track by these guys before I picked up the used cd. They were english - an acoustic duo on Astralwerks... how bad could it be? Well this cd shows the common man how hard it is to write and play truly engaging music. The songs are well written and played - they sound good, but they don't do anything - it's like meeting two people you know you won't remember in an hour.
