Our Take

SAINT ETIENNE's latest offering, "I've Been Trying To Tell You," is like stepping into a time machine set to the 90s. The English electronic trio, known for their dreamy pop sound, delivers a nostalgic trip down memory lane with this album.

From the opening track, "Music Again," it's clear that SAINT ETIENNE is here to make you reminisce about simpler times when all you needed was a catchy tune and a dance floor. The airy vocals of lead singer Sarah Cracknell float effortlessly over the lush synth-pop melodies, creating a sonic landscape that feels both familiar and fresh.

Tracks like "Pond House" and "Penlop" showcase the band's signature blend of euphoric beats and shimmering chords, transporting listeners to a euphoric state of mind. While the album may lack the immediacy of some of SAINT ETIENNE's earlier work, it more than makes up for it with its dreamy, ethereal soundscapes.

Overall, "I've Been Trying To Tell You" is a welcome addition to SAINT ETIENNE's discography, offering a soothing escape from the chaos of the modern world. So put on your dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and let SAINT ETIENNE take you on a journey through time and space. You won't regret it.

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.
