Pure pop for the summer

(3 out of 5 stars)

"The British band with the French name come back with an American-named album. We don't get Good Humor in the UK, but it's possible the US won't "get" "Good Humor". Like St Etienne's previous work, this comes with a book of great photographs, and a commissioned sleeve note. Douglas Coupland's written the sleeve note, and his connections with open-top cars, 60's movies and the South of France are pretty near the mark; except that St Etienne are closer to suburban trains, the 70's, and South London. There's some great pop on here, together with the usual non-sequitural lyrics straining for ironic resonance. One track is a re-tread of 1993's "Hobart Paving", but otherwise these are noo toons, new sentiments, and nice moments. I miss the between-track montages that they do on their other albums."
