Unfairly labelled as a disappointing follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut, A Weekend in the city is actually close to being a flawless concept album. From coke in dirty night club toilets; playing to rooms full of bored hipsters; the desire for weekend escapism- the essence of inner-city life is the seam running through this record.

Actually a fine follow-up, an overall pretty, anxious groove to it all occasionally marred by a few truly awful songs. For the most part it is a fairly pleasing listen despite trying to be much more than that and coming up well short.

Not a bad album. The Prayer, On and Where Is Home were the best.

This band is incredibly underated, maybe because they are european? I don't know, but they are definately worth checking out.
