The Gossip - Music For Men album flac

Music for Men is the fourth studio album by American indie rock band Gossip. It was released on June 19, 2009, by Columbia Records. The album's production was criticized due to its "loud" sound quality.

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.

Beth Ditto could refresh American Idol’s vocal-visual dichotomy since the singer has deft pipes and a proneness to be pictured, proudly overweight, on magazine covers. Music for Men. (COLUMBIA). Opening the Rick Rubin-produced Music for Men, Dimestore Diamond applies post-punk chops to a soul model, a successful if superfluous hybridization. On single Heavy Cross, a disco track that pendulates between a verse of Blondie-glitz and a chorus of enraged vocals/angular guitars, Ditto irately bemoans this cruel cruel world. Previous to this release, Ditto had fun with her big girl image; the fun is over on Music for Men, and so, too, is the allure.

Gossip's fourth studio album is the kind of record that makes you kick yourself if you haven't listened to the other three  . The lyrics aren't particularly complicated but the fact that Ditto puts it so simply is more of an excuse to quickly learn how to sing along when you need that perfect break-up song.
