Search - Chungking :: The Hungry Years

Previously released as 'We Travel Faster' though now remastered and remixed and including two new tracks, 'Please Don't Talk' & 'Voodoo', not found on the original release and a re-recorded version of 'Cold Outside'. This is a record that sounds like sunshine, and feels like summer ­ so why it came out in October is anyone's guess, though it radiates warmth aplenty to keep out the autumn chill. More class than Goldfrapp, more bite than Zero 7, and less hard work than Portishead, these two beardies and a beauty have come up with an album that will be soundtracking listless summer afternoons and fragile Sunday mornings for many years to come. They reckon they¹ve got their next album mostly written ­ if it¹s half as good as this and they can get it out by June, it¹ll be a scorcher. Gut. 2004.
