see ya! If you have a particular request you just can't live without, lay it on me and I'll put it back up.

I'll slowly be building this back up, but not like it was because it's so time consuming, and it's Texas, and summer and I live a block from the beach. Dirty Pretty Things move their music forward with this album, but they've sacrificed their clarity to achieve that.SOME MASSIVE JERK DOWNLOADED WHAT HE WANTED THEN REPORTED ALL THESE AS ILLEGAL RUINING IT FOR EVERYONE!!! Most of these links are down and I prolly won't be putting them back up. Then again, so many of Romance at Short Notice songs seem disconnected from each other that perhaps this shouldn't be a surprise. Romance at Short Notice's only true stumble is, unfortunately, one of its singles: 'Tired of England' sounds like Paul Weller backed by the Smiths, but its lyrics about a utopian London have just a fraction of the wit and social commentary that such a would-be collaboration implies, and considering the more critical tone of some of the album's other songs, it feels out of place. A few of them even achieve the progression that the band tries so hard for: 'Kicks or Consumption' and 'Best Face''s punk-funk put a finer point on the fury that ignited the album 'Faultlines' manages to be pretty and dissonant at the same time and 'Truth Begins' touches on the anthemic side of Barat's work with the Libertines without rehashing it entirely. Despite the album's lack of focus, the majority of Romance at Short Notice's songs are good in their own right. From song to song, Dirty Pretty Things jerk their listeners from one mood and sound to another, never quite finding a thread to tie it all together. It's admirable that Barat and crew want to explore as many approaches as possible, and just as admirable that Barat shares the singing and writing duties with bandmates Anthony Rossamundo and Didz Hammond (whose delicate ballad 'The North' is a highlight), but this doesn't give Romance at Short Notice much cohesion. Then the band takes an abrupt left turn into winsome, jangly pop with 'Plastic Hearts,' and Romance at Short Notice never quite regains its momentum. The album crashes in on 'Buzzards and Crows,' a brooding manifesto against 'a scene self-obsessed' embellished with carnivalesque organs, a flat-lining heart monitor, and what sounds like an angry mob it's followed by 'Hippy's Son,' where Barat tears down any leftover traces of '60s peace and love with snarling invective and guitars.

Romance at Short Notice isn't just much more polished than the band's scrappy debut, it's also much more eclectic - to a fault.

For most of Romance at Short Notice, Carl Barat and the rest of Dirty Pretty Things seem determined to move as far past the lingering ghosts of the Libertines and their debut album, Waterloo to Anywhere, as possible.
