Our Take

The Sparks brothers, Ron and Russell Mael, have always been ahead of the curve when it comes to pushing the boundaries of music. So it's no surprise that their latest endeavour, the soundtrack to Leos Carax's film Annette, is just as groundbreaking.

The album starts off with a bang on "So May We Start," a bombastic opera-esque opener that sets the tone for the rest of the record. With its soaring vocals and epic orchestral arrangements, it's a cinematic masterpiece that perfectly captures the larger-than-life feel of the film.

Tracks like "We Love Each Other So Much" and "Sympathy for the Abyss" showcase the Sparks brothers' knack for crafting catchy pop tunes with a dark edge. The juxtaposition of upbeat melodies and thought-provoking lyrics makes for a compelling listening experience that keeps you hooked from start to finish.

But it's the standout track "Weirdest of the Weird" that truly encapsulates the essence of Sparks. With its quirky lyrics and off-kilter instrumentation, it's a perfect example of the duo's unique approach to music.

Overall, the Annette soundtrack is a triumph for Sparks, proving once again why they are one of the most innovative and influential bands in the industry. So grab your popcorn, sit back, and let the magic of Sparks take you on a musical journey like no other. Brilliant!
