Quench

Opis:

Otherwise known as David Rotheray and Paul Heaton's Blue Period, Quench saw the usually wry and ebullient Beautiful South retreat into a Tom Waits-influenced period of depression, misanthropy and despair. It's something that hits many bands, but it suited the South more than most--it's only a quick walk, after all, from their 1994 hit "Old Red Eyes Is Back" to Quench's more desolate "Liar's Bar", and it's not like they abandoned the pop altogether: the hit single "Amsterdam (Or Anywhere)" is as gorgeous as anything else in their canon, and it seemed like they hit a public nerve--Quench is, somewhat incongruously, the Beautiful South's biggest-selling album proper (only their hits collection, Carry On Up The Charts, has done better). --Caitlan Moran

Product Description

This 6-piece band, sprung from the remnants of the Housemartins (who also spawned Norman Cook, a.k.a. Fatboy Slim), are one of Britain's biggest selling bands of the decade. Quench reflects a change in The Beautiful South's sound; after 2 downbeat, ballad-heavy albums, the band now returns with a soulful strut. Diverse without sacrificing any of their classic elements, standouts include the emotional pull of "The Slide," the wry "Perfect 10" and the ambitious "Window Shopping for Blinds."
