Camera Obscura - Let's Get Out Of This Country

Ravishing and delightful - ten sparkling, sometimes melancholy-edged, sometimes upbeat, sometimes both at once pop treats. Favourites: "Lloyd, I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken", "Come Back Margaret", "Let's Get Out Of This Country", "Country Mile" and, especially, the sprightly 60s-hued "If Looks Could Kill". Which is half of the album already, and the balance aren't far behind.
