Credit In Heaven

The Suburbs, “Credit In Heaven” (Twin/Tone, 1981)
Second LP is a double, and they needed it, because their invention here is at its most frantically fertile. U.K.-inflected Roxy-romantic swashbuckling heartachery and Contortionesque cool atonal twitch get irrigated by their local Minneapolis fluids in the mode of Princetly sophisto-perv funk and Replacements-reiniscent smash-up-the-bar-at-4AM rockin’ recklessness. Yet it all forms a whole that’s uniquely Suburbs and uniquely excellent.
