What we say This record left our Phil feeling happy. The Lodger's debut album is released now. Here it is in fact. Grown Up's is 100% complete unashamed pop. It's not really my kind of thing these days but I really like this for some reason. It's great catchy indie pop music which harks back to the old days before style and fashion took over. There's bits of Ash, Lightning Seeds, Wedding Present in it and they remind me of New Rhodes with their approach to simple catchy pop fun. It sounds like the kind of record which could have been made 15-20 years ago. Quality! What the label says: VINYL VERSION OF THIS LEEDS BANDS' DEBUT ALBUM ONLY AVALABLE ON SLUMBERLAND VIA FORTE: TAKING THEIR CUES FROM FELLOW NORTHERNERS THE SMITHS AND THE WEDDING PRESENT, THE LODGER'S MUSIC IS CLASSIC MELODIC POP, FUELED BY SPARKLING HOOKS AND PLANGENT LYRICS. THE TUNES ARE SHARP AND TIMELESS, A THOROUGHLY MODERN DISTILLATION OF GREAT BRITPOP FROM THE '60S RIGHT UP TO TODAY.

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.
