 This semi-unknown English band presents a little less than forty minutes of a cheerful and danceable mishmash where we find quite a bit of early-era Beatles and a lot, a lot of Elvis Costello.

 Listening to this album is as futile and enjoyable as watching an episode of 'Happy Days', of which it would be a perfectly fitting soundtrack.

Any Trouble's 1979 debut album 'Where Are All The Nice Girls?' offers a cheerful and danceable mix heavily influenced by early Beatles and Elvis Costello. Featuring 13 fast-paced tracks with catchy melodies, the album explores youthful romances and admiration of women with somewhat predictable but pleasant lyrics. Despite its predictability, the album is enjoyable and memorable, fitting for fans of late 70s British rock and new wave. It remains the band's most successful work. Discover the vibrant energy of Any Trouble's debut – listen to 'Where Are All The Nice Girls?' and relive a lively slice of late 70s rock!

 The melodies on this album are very reminiscent of Love Is Here: intimate, slow, melancholic.

 All the Plans reveals itself as a bit cloying, sometimes whiny and monotonous but also full of interesting cues and some highlights.

Starsailor's album All the Plans marks their return after a four-year hiatus, aiming to recapture the success of their debut Love Is Here. The album features melancholic and intimate melodies with more refined arrangements. It includes some standout tracks like Safe at Home, Neon Sky, and the bluesy Stars and Stripes. Though not a masterpiece and sometimes monotonous, it remains a respectable effort with promising moments. Discover Starsailor's All the Plans and experience their bittersweet brit-pop comeback today!
