Bright Like Neon Love

Tuneful songwriting set to 80's synthpop backdrop. Good stuff, entertaining and listenable. Favorite song on cd is Future. Highly recommend checking out their In Ghost Colours album which is my personal favorite CC album.

Very 80's New wave, potentially great but a bit too scattered for my tastes. Some of the songs are motivated and well written and others are just bland and forgettable.

Perhaps one of the better albums of 2004. One of those albums you can listen to again and again without feeling like you've heard it one too many times. Fun, melancholy at points, gloriously produced and an all around classic to be.

In order to review 'Bright Like Neon Love', I'll have to tell you a little about myself. I work in a busy, busy kitchen. Food has to be made, practically from scratch, in minutes, or the customers ain't happy. Sundays, we can get run around for hours on end without time to pause for even a drink of water, let alone to change the music on the stereo. One day, I could feel the energy in the air and somehow knew that we were about to be murdered by a mob of hungry patrons. Not having had this album for very long, I put my trust in it and set the stereo on repeat. As soon as Time Stands Still came out of its fog, for just one flicker of a moment, time did stand still; and during the next 5 hours I worked harder than I ever have in my life. Through the entire ordeal, this album played non-stop. I couldn't possibly have chosen a better work. Cut Copy is multi-faceted, mellow, synthy dance music that can endure critical scrutiny, or simply play endlessly in the background. It never tires, never offends, and never stops being good. Bright Like Neon Love is energetic without being pushy. And when you're stressed out, the last thing you want to start barking orders at you is your music.

from the moment I heard "Saturdays" I was sold. Gorgeous CD. Love the concept and how can you go wrong with music that makes you miss an era that you didn't live in?
