After a three year absence, Everything but the Girl returns with a new, and innovative album. Ben Watt and Tracey Thorn mix vocals, keyboards, percussion into an orchestration that depicts a city, and its night life. Thorn's vocals are constantly changing, and evolving in the tracks from high pitch, to a soft bassy angle. Watt, who wrote most of the songs, incorporates striking keyboards, bass, saxophone, and other instruments to make sounds and textures.
The most notable tracks on the CD are "Low Tide of the Night" that describes an almost physical depression. "Hatfield 1980" that walks the listener through a city. "Lullaby of Clubland" is about a casual, if not desperate, relationship. "Temperamental" is an argument in song.
Temperamental has a jazz, blues
overtone to it. The lyrics are shaded in grey, and paint cityscapes into the
listener's imagination. This is a bold, contemporary album.
