Margot & The Nuclear So & So’s, Buzzard
2010 | Label: Mariel Recording Company / Redeye

When their sweet and dreamy debut album was released in 2005, Margot & the Nuclear So-and-So's were chamber pop masters who punctuated poignant lyrics with blaring trumpets and groaning cellos. Five years later, the group (led by singer Richard Edwards — no one in the band is actually named Margot) is fiercer, noisier, dirtier. Margot, it appears, has found her edge, and Buzzard is a lovely study in escalating aggression tempered by the quieter introspective moments that the band's fans have come to love.

If You Liked The First Two Don't Buy

I love Margot's first two (three if you want to be technical) albums, but this...this is so different (read: bad) that it shouldn't even be considered the same band. No chamber pop. No hooks. And most importantly, no songs worth multiple listens. Really unfortunate. A true disappointment.
