Jack Penate: Everything Is New
Posted by sandamiano on 24 May 2010 - 1:56am.
There's only one soundtrack for this heatwave, and it's this album from last year. For the uninitiated it's a kind of modern singer-songwriter pop sound (produced by Paul Epworth) with Brazilian tropicalia flavours. I think there's a hint of 'Head On The Door' era Cure or maybe even the The's 'Soul Mining' in there somewhere. I'm on the verge of almost stopping folk in the street to tell them how great this album is. Bloody short too, with nary a track over 4 minutes long. Whole thing over and done in 37 brisk minutes.

Good call
Pull My Heart Away is one of the best opening tracks I think I've ever heard - it puts you right in the summery mood!
I never imagined
Buying a Jack Penate album after hearing the uninspiring stuff off his first album, but Everything Is New is really good. Don't be put off by preconceptions!
Enjoyed it
Saw him live at Bestival and thought he was destined for improved success - but he seems to have died off the radar
