When Melbourne art rockers The Paradise Motel disbanded around the turn of the millennia it was a bitter blow. The sonically-intriguing troupe has since reformed, and latest LP Oh Boy verily picks up where their informative career left off. The dirge of City Of Fortune reassures they're in capable hands; the creepy, lush strings in The Spider transport to some desperate place; and The Swedish Prize goes even further beyond with its distant and solemn harmonies. There's a lot to like – just go and get it.
