Gossip - Music For Men album flac

These songs are just as empowering as their earlier work, though they're more subtly defiant. Dimestore Diamond" opens the album with a tough-strutting anthem about a woman who's faking it till she makes it, and it's clear how much the band identifies with her, even though Ditto became an avant-garde fashion plate in the wake of Control's success

It seems to be two steps forward, three steps back with Portland, Oregon soul-punk pioneers the Gossip. Not musically you understand; they consistently make leaps and bounds in that area, but as a political entity. And they are one, albeit an incredibly catchy and danceable one. Even if they don't use soap boxes or slogans, by their very existence and excellence Beth Ditto, Brace Paine and Hannah Blilie are a positive force for change in a narrow-minded mainstream; a sharp slap across the face, waking the world up to questions about image, sexuality, gender and identity.

The Gossip's template – Beth Ditto's almost absurdly soulful vocals set against an urgent rock-disco backing – hasn't altered significantly on their Rick Rubin-produced fourth album. Independent culture newsletter. The best in film, music, TV & radio straight to your inbox.

Gossip: Music for Men. Mark Edwards. June 21 2009, 1:46pm, The Sunday Times. What does the producer Rick Rubin see in Gossip? Presumably, he reckons he could be onto another Red Hot Chili Peppers here: an edgy, punky band he can clean and polish into a stadium-filling funk machine. Unfortunately, he's cleaned and polished the band's sound on Music for Men, only to reveal that there's not much substance beneath the outer layers of grungy attitude. No stadium-filling funk, just some rather weedy - and almost entirely hook-bereft - disco.
