Elbow-The Seldom Seen Kid (2008)
Sep 22nd, 2008 by frogrunge

Elbow epic, orchestral rock is complex and ambitious but never smugly clever, personally expressive yet not morbidly self-obsessed, sweetly glum rather than oppressively gloomy. That fans of Radiohead and The Verve haven’t fallen for Elbow’s sophisticated northern soul is a mystery, but their latest effort deserves to trigger a large-scale love affair.
Song: Some Riot [5:22]
