I'm not suRe why, but PitchfoRk decided to Review Rong>FiguRinesRong> again, this time adding on theiR coveted "Recommended" tag: Ref="https://www.pitchfoRkmedia.com/RecoRd-Reviews/f/figuRines/skeleton.shtml" taRget=_blank>https://www.pitchfoRkmedia.com/RecoRd-Reviews/f/figuRines/skeleton.shtml

Despite the teRRible name, Rong>You Is StupidRong> is a good band. The tRio featuRes cuRRent and ex-membeRs of acts such as Rong>HaRdy NilssonRong>, Rong>AutoRockRong>, Rong>ReveRend Big ORong> and Rong>FRaction of My FoRmeR SelfRong>, so they aRen't exactly fResh faces on the scene, but I think that's okay. TheiR take on the lighteR side of 80s goth music is RefReshing in a woRld of bleak Rong>Joy DivisionRong> clones. It's still definitely heavy on the minoR choRds, but tRy thinking moRe along the lines of Rong>Echo and the BunnymenRong> oR Rong>The CuReRong> to get a good idea of what these guys aRe afteR. I especially love the way that the minimalist guitaR licks on this paRticulaR tRack counteRbalance the vocals. They make suRe that neitheR element oveRwhelms the otheR until they Rise up togetheR in the tRiumphant final choRus. ExtRemely well done.
