The Correspondents occupy a curious position within the world of music. For the last four years they have toured relentlessly with an average of three gigs a week, they have travelled the world bringing their unique live show to crowds as large as 12,000 earning themselves Telegraph's 'Top Ten Glastonbury Highlights' two years in a row, but they haven't released an album until now. 'Puppet Loosely Strung' is the long-awaited culmination of years of musical experience from the exceptionally talented duo, consisting of producer, Chucks, and singer, Mr Bruce. Those lucky enough to have witnessed their inimitable live show will be fully aware of the high voltage performances the pair are capable of. Their live sets are constantly evolving as they leap through a multitude of genres, tapping a history of dance music from jazz and blues to electro and drum 'n' bass. 'Puppet Loosely Strung' sees the charismatic duo develop this unique sound that has garnered them so much acclaim on the live circuit and reveals the fascinating, multifaceted nature of their music. While a handful of tracks on the LP feature regularly on the group's tried and tested set list, including firm fan favourite 'Well Measured Vice', the other half of the album exposes another side of The Correspondents - one that is more introspective, contrasting with the highly-energetic, drum and bass inspired sound that thrills audiences worldwide.

Anyway, The Correspondents are hitting the road for a few live shows in April and May in support of their frankly spiffing debut album Puppet Loosely Strung. Midlands based chaps and chappetes can catch them on Thursday 10th April at The Institute. Jolly good show, eh what?! Posted by The Baron.

One need only listen to the first two singles to be taken from their debut to see the extent of the contrast on show here. While 'Fear and Delight' sees the duo developing their trademark sound of upbeat, genre-mashing alternative pop, second single, 'Alarm Call', reveals itself to be a more personal and poignant affair and sees frontman Mr Bruce show the incredible range and tone of his voice. The singer moves effortlessly between the bold, rousing chorus, before quasi-whispering the emotional mid-section: 'I'm haunted by the sound of your alarm call' - this is goosebump-raising fare. Exploring feelings of excitement and frustration - the sort that only love and lust can bring - the band of two make a big sound on this album which is cinematic in scope and has the ability to both fill dancefloors with its thunderous drum sequences and rouse deep emotion with its poignant lyrical content. The singles released ahead of this LP are accompanied by music videos which are unique in style and pioneering in technique. The video for 'Fear and Delight' was made using a 'composite camera' technique by visionary film-maker Naren Wilks, allowing numerous versions of Mr Bruce to dance kaleidoscopically in the same space. The visuals for heartwrenching ballad, 'Alarm Call', were produced by the frontman himself, using time lapse and stop motion techniques to chart the lives of two characters over a 21 year period through a series of layered oil portraits.

Around you they were so confused a faulty man could have so much fun. They read you smiles, nothing but teeth, looked at you with pity first, then disbelief. Let me put myself in your shoes as a puppet loosely strung. They may think they'd never choose to be the man that you've become. You never felt the need to conform We get drunk or high to feel what you've felt since you've been born. I'm tied to so many things I don't need to do.

I'll loosen my strings to feel more like you. I'm tied to so many things I don't need to do, I'll loosen my strings to feel more like you. Let me put myself in your shoes as a puppet loosely strung.

Did you feel the weight of other's views, or was their ignorance a source of fun? I hated the whispers in the street Do you oppose a greeting, pulling the rug beneath their feet? I'm tied to so many things I don't need to do. Beamng Drive Keygen Crack here.
