What you say No-one has reviewed Paper Television by The Blow yet. Give us your opinion on Paper Television by The Blow. What we say This record left our BRIAN D feeling ecstatic. Talking of maverick, fantastic talent spotting genius label Tomlab are unleashing a new album by THE BLOW, former K records cult popsters. 'Paper Television' is mischievously sassy, morphing electronic pop with verve, soul, humour, lashings of fresh hooks, furiously forward looking production & perfect songwriting. If Psapp were from Portland, Oregon then I think they'd maybe sound a little more like this. It's all in the minimalist approach I think. The songs are centered around clicks, pulses, skittering percussion, schizo bass bloops, manic synth stabs, all the while the twin pronged, street-smart birdsong vocals twist breathlessly around this free, magical music with gleeful abandon. It seems to take it's cue from fem fronted Scando-Indie pop but these two hugely talented ladies shape all the tunes into something really individual & ultimately precious. I think we may have found our album of the week folks! CD/G/Fold LP What the label says: Track Listing 1. Pile Of Gold 2. Parentheses 3. Big U 4. Long List Of Girls 5. Bonjour Jeune Fille 6. Babay 7. Eat Your Heart Up 8. Pardon Me 9. Fists Up 10. True Affection

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
