four years ago, The Polyphonic Spree briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Running Away”. Thom Yorke has compared writing for The Polyphonic Spree’s new album to that on ‘The Fragile Army’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. This disc has all of the essential The Polyphonic Spree classics. This is the best album I have heard in a long time
Running Away is the gorgeous blend of moody yet optimistic tunes. The sound of Get Up And Go is difficult to describe, as it seems to squirm in a sensual manner, unlike anything ever created. The Fragile Army - A classic The Polyphonic Spree track. Some of the arrangements found on The Fragile Army are surprisingly edgy. Song We Crawl is actually a funny song. This song is very powerful, its catchy melody will have you singing along in no time. Guaranteed Nightlite is a marvelous song and it grows on you. Light To Follow on The Fragile Army is solid and easy to listen to. Watch Us Explode (Justify) (4:42) - awsome. Blew our minds when we first heard Overblow Your Nest. Get The Fragile Army and turn on The Championship if you are going to sip your wine late at night.
