After seeing More Than This, I had to have a good Roxy Music cd. Lead single “More Than This” and “The Space Between” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. John Digester has compared writing for Roxy Music’s new album to that on ‘Avalon’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. If you want to hear real Rock: Pop-Rock, get this record now!
The Space Between which is my favorite is a truly Roxy Music sounding song. Avalon is a gorgeous sing-along. It’s such an underrated song. While My Heart Is Still Beating is, without a doubt, my favorite song, ever. The Main Thing is possibly the most mysterious and inexplicable track Roxy Music ever produced. Music in Take A Chance With Me is gorgeous as in all tracks of Avalon. To Turn You On catches attention immediately, True To Life is a song to savor, to listen to from every angle. Tara is another strong production from Roxy Music.
