Saint Etienne return after a long lay-off with the most ridiculous approximation of Kylie Minogue's simpering day-glo chart pop. 'Burnt Out Car' is mild mannered electronic pop that doffs it's cap to prime Stock, Aitken & Waterman and like lots of their stuff is so insipid & awful it's actually quite irresistable! 7"/CDs with one of the discs containing remixes and that.
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
What their label says...
Burnt Out Car is a vintage slice of shiny, melodic, super-pop for your heart and head - a ripe Balearic anthem fit for this, that, or any other year.
Taken from the upcoming career spanning Best Of 'London Conversations' this is one of the two new tracks on the album.
Produced and mixed by Brian Higgins of Xenomania fame (Girls Aloud, Sugababes, Kylie, Texas and Franz Ferdinand), the man dubbed a Phil Spector for the 21st century by The Observer, this is as catchy a pop song as you'll hear this summer.
Each format has exclusive tracks, including brand new b-sides and remixes.
The remixes are by Mark Brown who recently had a Number One hit with Sarah Cracknell on 'The Journey Continues'.
