Lubbock (On Everything) - Terry Allen

Advantages: Hugely Original
Disadvantages: None

...This is by far one of the most original albums I have listened to in a very long time. Very much of a 'Lily Allen' style and yet Kate Nash has still somehow managed to make it sound unique and different to anything else available on the market at the moment. A must have for for fans of Lily Allen and indeed anyone who has heard Kates hugely succesful debut single, 'Foundations'. I think this fantastic woman will continue to be hugely succesful for years to come and this album is yet another step in the great fairytale of someone coming from nothing to suddenly having everything. My personal favourites on this album are of course, Foundations, Mouthwash and We Get On which I think will prove to be yet another hit for this wonderful woman.... Read review

Advantages: A unique musical style in un-unique times
Disadvantages: None

...I have been a little annoyed of late with the music scene, lots of crap rap and R & B trash dominates our charts; and I'm convinced a large proportion of the buying population are buying to keep in with some clique. From this abominable pile of trash comes Lily Allen peddling merrily away on her bike. At first the prospect of the annoying Keith Allen's daughter singing turned me cold, I had visions of a singing Chav concerned with take away's and booze. However a fleeting glimpse of Lily on Channel Fours Transmission (music show) changed that view. Lily Allen is a beautiful breezy change from the current music scene, and in ways a opportunity to return to the musical styling's of the 80's.

Advantages: Phrases in songs that you can relate to.
Disadvantages: All tracks are alike

...sound is high pitched, and cheery, unlike most of the other music i listen to! The other songs all sound pretty much the same, there's not bery much variation, as all the songs are portrayed as a drunken teen. I think Lily shoukd try her hand at doing something a little more classy, to see where it takes her. Lily Allen is the daughter of the comedian, Keith Allen, so perhaps that's where she gets her lines from! Here's the track list: 1. Smile 2. Knock 'Em Out 3. LDN 4. Everything's Just Wonderful 5. Not Big 6. Friday Night 7. Shame For You 8. Littlest Things 9. Take What You Take 10. Friend Of Mine 11. Alfie Overall, i think it's a good album, but i'm glad I only paid a fiver for it, I like to know that I'm getting a good deal when spending my money, and I think that I would of felt cheated if I paid a tenner.
