LISTEN: New album from Cornershop

Check out the duo's blissful eight album now.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 17 May 2012

Hot Press faves Cornershop are back with Urban Turban, “a walk through the hard-drive of Tjinder Singh’s head”, which positively screams “summer!”

Its cast of, well, dozens includes Swedish and French songstresses, a Lancashire primary school choir and loads more intriguing characters.

Half of the 12 tracks are drawn from the band’s Singhles Club – a punning Hot Press sub-editors job awaits if they want it – which finds Tjinder and musical partner in crime Ben Ayers indulging in wanton genre-bending.

Luxuriate in its wonderfulness and then order online from store.cornershop.com.

Wop The Groove

Where did Cornershop go with the Anglo/Indian sounds they did so well? Well, let me tell you. In 2003, they began making an film about London’s independent music industry, and ‘Wop The Groove’ is the soundtrack to this. It needs little imagination to guess quite correctly how such a piece of music might sound. But to throw a spanner into the works, it’s X Factor ‘star’ Rowetta providing vocals. The weirdest thing is that she doesn’t even ruin it.

Topknot [feat. Bubbley Kaur & M.I.A.]

Poor Cornershop looked so damned uncomfortable throughout their whole chart topping experience that you feared it would scar them forever and they’d never want to make records again. They have, however, sunk happily back into semi-oblivion and knocked out a stream of fantastic singles, of which 'Topknot' is by far the best.

Handcream For A Generation

Depending on your point of view, this frustrating album is either an amusingly disjointed flying-visit traipse through the usual bustling, omni-cultural Cornershop tour of central London and points east, or a disappointing collection of great ideas brought about seventy percent of the way to satisfying fruition and then, perversely, left there
