Plainly stated, Turn on the Bright Lights
is the album modern followers of post-punk have been waiting for. It is
the album that makes all the hub-bub about the New York City music
scene of late seem justified; it is the album that makes the time we're
living through feel like an era rather than a haphazard, disconnected
series of events. I don't generally believe in making commercial pleas
in reviews, but I strongly suggest that you go out and buy this album.
It will arrest you during your waking hours, stir you from your
sleeping, and, all the while, it will broodingly break your heart.
I encourage any one who has not heard this album to stop what they are doing and for god's sake give this a good listen.
