Since Tuesday I have been in a state of mourning that not even Elvis Costello could cure.
Normally I would make some cringeworthy pun, considering the next entry is a Cure album. But alas, my heart is too heavy. Check out my movie blog if my misery is at all interesting to you.
As frequent readers may know, I adore Costello. This album is a bit more experimental than his previous endeavors, but he is always able to remain accessible. This is probably due to his lyrics. I particularly enjoyed "Man Out of Time," which was delightfully British.
Stay tuned for the big 500!
RATING: 5/5
Great album. I hope you had found some strength since then. It's only four year, you know. And Elvis Costello will be always there... :)
