Stop Your Cryin

Here comes the moment we’ve all been anticipating for the last four years, and the really good news is that the return of the mighty Spiritualized is one to relish. Jason Pierce sings “nothing hurts you like the pain of someone you love” in his best strung out drawl, as a thirty piece orchestra and choir sweep the chorus off to a bug-eyed land all of its own.

‘Stop Your Cryin’ is a classic orchestral pop song, recalling an age of Scott Walker and Duke Ellington, when pop music really meant something. Hallelujah.

There's also a new album to look forward to!

A&E isn’t a reinvention for Spiritualized, but while that might be a disappointment for some, the comforting embrace of familiarity shouldn’t be underrated.

Jason Pierce doesn’t do Dogme. For all the talk of a stripped-down, back-to-basics approach on Amazing Grace, his most recent record is as comparable to something like Slanted And Enchanted, as Solaris is to Festen.

Certainly, this is the rockiest wig-out the Spiritualized mainman has indulged in for years.

2003-09-08 - REVIEW

The album divides neatly into two categories – raucous trancey rock songs and strident soulful tunes. With the latter, Pierce evinces to wonderful effect his refined sense of pace and song structure.

The audience had plenty of reasons to stay rooted to the spot and be blown away by this gorgeous cascade of sound

First, let’s dispense with all the drug talk. The ’90s narcotic experience was a social rather than solitary one.
