REVIEWS
Baz Luhrmann has transformed a book of class, subtlety and sophistication into a frenzied folly, with the heartfelt emotion of a Las Vegas floorshow, writes CHRIS TOOKEY.
CHRIS TOOKEY: The story unfolds on an aeroplane heading — like a country anticipating economic meltdown — for a crash landing.
CHRIS TOOKEY: Here’s a revenge thriller that’s professionally made but has no life in it at all. That’s partly down to over-leisurely, lacklustre direction by Niels Arden Oplev.
CHRIS TOOKEY: 21 And Over is the antithesis of family entertainment. Its antiheroes are a foul-mouthed, self-centred drop-outs of monumental stupidity.
The Look of Love has achieved the impossible, writes CHRIS TOOKEY, the biopic of Paul Raymond, Britain’s most colourful porn baron, is unerotic and dull.
Comic-strip superhero movies are not exactly noted for intelligence, wit or humour. Iron Man 3 is the welcome exception.

STOOSHE
London With The Lights On (Warner Bros)
THEY were put together after being spotted in Topshop, but girl band Stooshe push aside the manufactured tag in this debut that radiates natural, sassy charm. The harmonies are strong and the three young divas don’t take themselves too seriously as they dart with plenty of attitude between pop, reggae and soul. Slip has Motown backbeats, while Black Heart is a Sixties-style melodrama in praise of bad boys.

NOAH AND THE WHALE
Heart Of Nowhere (Mercury)
Once part of the new folk scene with Laura Marling and Mumford & Sons, the ever prolific Noah And The Whale are maturing beautifully. With Charlie Fink’s tuneful rasp prominent, their fourth album in five years builds on the FM guitar-rock of 2011’s Last Night On Earth. Not Too Late is a poignant coming-of-age anthem, while the string-driven title track benefits from a powerful vocal cameo from guest Anna Calvi.

VAMPIRE WEEKEND
Modern Vampires Of The City (XL)
Most indie-rock bands are good for one or two albums, but this third effort suggests a long career. The New Yorkers once sang of bus routes in Manhattan, but the themes are deeper and darker here. Worship You revisits Sixties psychedelia, and the thumping Diane Young recalls Simon & Garfunkel’s Cecilia. A refreshingly adventurous affair.

NATALIE MAINES
Mother (Sony Music)
One-third of Texan country rebels The Dixie Chicks, Natalie Maines returns from a seven-year sabbatical in fiery fashion. Maines has voiced her disenchantment with the Nashville way, and she lets her anger burn on a set of rock-based songs. Mixing originals and covers, she rocks out on Trained, though the highlights are her ballads — the swirling Pink Floyd title track and Jeff Buckley’s languid Lover You Should Have Come Over.

BRAHMS
Violin Concerto etc
THIS is an outstanding performance of one of the most challenging concertos in the violin repertoire. Georgian violinist Lisa Batiashvili adopts decent tempi, instead of the sluggish speeds so many of her rivals favour. The work glows as a result. The only downside is the CD is 47:31 long.

OMD
English Electric (100%)
As Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark, they were among the leading lights of Eighties synth-pop, and this second album since a 2007 reunion finds the Merseyside duo on familiar ground. Their tuneful computer-pop nods to New Order and Kraftwerk. And, while electronic sounds dominate, their strength remains a bittersweet, human touch.

SARAH BLASKO
I Awake (Dramatico)
Australian torch singer Blasko’s fourth solo album is a dark, yet compelling affair. From the Portishead-like blues of God Fearing to the rolling kettle drums of the jazzy title track, it’s a record of deceptively simple songs that are high on raw emotion. The Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra adds colour to Blasko’s smoky vocals.

Depeche Mode return to their bluesy synth-rock sound after 2009’s surprisingly upbeat album. Singer Dave Gahan and co-writer Martin Gore harmonise brilliantly on Welcome To My World while My Little Universe is a lo-fi techno stomp.
