Kate Nash - Made of Bricks

4 out of 5 stars

The British are very well-known for their infamous "potty mouth". Songstress Kate
Nash makes sure this stereotype is heard loud and clear on her album Made of Bricks.
But don't get a rash assumption on account of the parental advisory warning label.
Her innocent and cheery musicality gives a unique and contrasting effect to her sour and sullen messages - an effect, which instantly perked my ears and piqued my attention.

What I found quite refreshing about Made of Bricks is that this brit singer's music is quite simplistic. From the repetitive "play" to the acoustic "d***head", Kate takes a more instrumental approach to her craft. Aside from "Pumpkin Soup" à la Beyoncé Knowles, this girl beats to her own drum and pounds @#$%! the keys.

Anyone wanting an escape from the array of techno and electronica, Kate Nash provides an amazing album that goes back to the basics.
