Our Take

SAINT ETIENNE's 1998 album 'Good Humor' is a delightful concoction of shimmering synths, infectious rhythms, and charming vocals that transport you straight to a summer discotheque in Ibiza. Bob Stanley, Pete Wiggs, and Sarah Cracknell have crafted a record that effortlessly blends electronica with pop sensibilities, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and refreshing.

From the opening track 'Woodcabin' to the closing notes of 'Erica America', each song oozes with a laid-back coolness that is impossible to resist. Cracknell's vocals float effortlessly over the lush production, evoking images of sun-drenched beaches and late-night dance parties.

Standout tracks like 'Sylvie' and 'Split Screen' showcase SAINT ETIENNE's ability to craft hook-laden pop gems that stick in your head long after the music stops. The addition of guest musicians like Shawn Lee and Etienne Daho add layers of depth and sophistication to the already rich sonic tapestry.

'Good Humor' is a testament to SAINT ETIENNE's enduring talent and creativity, solidifying their status as one of the most innovative and influential bands of the past three decades. If you're looking for a soundtrack to your next summer soirée, look no further than this timeless classic. You'll be dancing the night away in no time.

About the artist

Saint Etienne

Ah, Saint Etienne, the illustrious trio that has been enchanting listeners with their unique blend of indie pop, dance, and electronic music since the early '90s. Comprised of the effortlessly cool Sarah Cracknell, Bob Stanley, and Pete Wiggs, this London-based band has consistently impressed with their catchy hooks, sophisticated production, and undeniable charm. Their debut album, "Foxbase Alpha," released in 1991, catapulted them into the spotlight with hits like "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" and "Nothing Can Stop Us." Since then, Saint Etienne has continued to experiment and evolve, pushing boundaries and delighting fans with each new release. Their discography is a testament to their versatility, from the dreamy nostalgia of "So Tough" to the electronic grooves of "Tales from Turnpike House." And let's not forget their collaborations with the likes of Tim Burgess, Kylie Minogue, and Etienne Daho, which have only added to their impressive repertoire. But what truly sets Saint Etienne apart is their ability to capture the essence of British pop culture in their music. Whether they're paying homage to the sounds of Swinging London or exploring the gritty reality of urban life, their songs are imbued with a sense of time and place that is unmistakably their own. So, if you're looking for music that's as stylish as it is substantive, look no further than Saint Etienne. With their infectious melodies, clever lyrics, and undeniable joie de vivre, they're a band that's impossible to resist. In the words of their own hit single, "Join our club, join our club, join our club." You won't regret it.
