Bummer album of the week: Gossip – A Joyful Noise

Gossip band 2012


Gossip suddenly got all famous in 2006 on the back of the excellent ‘Standing In The Way Of Control’ and the fact that lead singer, Beth Ditto, is the same size as Grimsby (although not as attractive). Well a couple of weeks ago they released album number five, ‘A Joyful Noise’ and it’s not! It’s pure eighties regurgitated disco, leaving me in wonder if it really is the same band as six years ago. Unintelligent, unskilful and unlistenable – Bummer Album Of The Week!
