'There was always going to be chatter as to how Peter Bjorn and John would follow up a pop phenomenon. Would they try to replicate their earlier success? Or go out of their way to release a wilfully difficult new album? In actual fact, what they have done is a bit of both - and neither - all at the same time. Bolstered by the band’s production, the first taster of the album, 'Lay it Down', which snuck out onto the blogosphere at the end of 2008, was a delightfully off-kilter riposte, a jaunty flying-V in the faces of people who thought they’d had the band all figured out, with a harsh, treated vocal lifelessly intoning the threatening refrain of 'Hey, shut the fuck up boy, you’re starting to piss me off' before abruptly giving way to an anthemic, full-bodied singalong, the sort which will send the masses scurrying to any self-respecting dancefloor on a Saturday night.
The rest of the album walks a similar tightrope of melody and mayhem. 'I Want You!' is quite possibly one of the loveliest things they have ever done. And then, of course, there are the brilliant surprises that you weren’t expecting. 'The Feeling' is the grand entrance to the album, and as far as opening tracks go, it’s one hell of a statement of intent - with drums crashing in like waves on a beach, heavy distortion vibrating and, of course, shards of delicate beauty poking through the carefully controlled chaos. 'Just the Past' is a pumped-up, rough around the edges, would be disco gem, and 'I’m Losing My Mind' is by turns angular and heart-swelling. And then there is the Kanye West-approved, official first single, 'Nothing to Worry About', a glorious rollercoaster ride of lolloping beats and children’s choirs, and the furthest thing from 'Young Folks' you could possibly find. --- 'Living Thing' pulses with life, it is bursting at the seams with energy and vitality, and shot through with warmth and excitement and wonder. --- Tracklisting: 1. The Feeling 2. It Don't Move Me 3. Just The Past 4. Nothing To Worry About 5. I'm Losing My Mind 6. Living Thing
7. I Want You! 8. Lay It Down 9. Stay This Way 10. Blue Period Picasso 11. 4 Out Of 5 12. Last Night
