Aeroplane - We Can't Fly

Aeroplane have made a great album with "We Can't Fly". And to think this is only their debut, is astonishing. Do you remember the concept albums of the 70s that were "so awesome and cannot be done again"? Well, here you go: "We Can't Fly" is so rich, so stylish, so well thought of. The songs vary from pop (We Fall Over) to disco anthems (I Don't Feel) to synth-rock (London Bridge) to whatever you can expect. And they are so good, they stand so easily on their own, but, still they work as an album with a particular structure. Very very good effort by Aeroplane, this album is a future masterpiece.

"We Can't Fly" is out this October 4th on Eskimo, but you can listen to it here now

p.s. How many great albums do we have in 2010? Crystal Castles, Deerhunter, Big Boi, Aeroplane, plus many more. And there still are some 5 months ahead of us, with all the "big" releases. So, never mind what the papers say, great music is all around you.
