Teenage Fanclub - Shadows - VINYL LP

2014 25th anniversary vinyl LP series reissue. Originally released in 2010, Shadows picks up on the introspective, world-weary quality of Man-Made but also delivers a bit of the classic bright pop the band is known for. Where Man-Made found the band struggling with feeling like life was an illusion on the dogged InchIt's All in My Mind,Inch here you get Love's breezy baroque pop statement of purpose InchSometimes I Don't Need to Believe in Anything,Inch with it's chorus of layered synth, strings, flutes, & sundry wind instruments. Similarly, Blake's leadoff single InchBaby LeeInch is a romantic '60s-styled folk-rocker that veritably shimmers with positive vibes. Elsewhere, Love's InchInto the CityInch is a sunshine pop/country-rock love letter to urban days in the sun and McGinley's InchToday Never EndsInch is slow-burn psychedelic country-rock rumination on the past, the present, and a perfect day that never ends. If the day is as sun-drenched and relaxed as the songs on Shadows implies, then may it and Teenage Fan club go on and on. Album Tracks 1. Sometimes I Don't Need to Believe in Anything 2. Baby Lee 3.
