Belle & Sebastian ProfileCultivating a blend of synth-pop and contemporised ‘60s chord progressions, Belle & Sebastian’s latest offers up a tapestry of sweet indie-pop, melancholy lullabies and ventures into the electronic jungle; an eclectic album catering for every mood and swing. Although perfectly executed, with everything falling delightfully into place, crystal production and predictability leave little room for surprise. Where Belle & Sebastian break the safety net is in Play For Today, Stuart Murdoch and Sarah Martin playfully intertwining and the buzzing synthesiser creating a sparkling energy that resonates right to your fingertips.
