Advantages: Foundations is great

Disadvantages: Inconsistent quality

Kate Nash owes her success to myspace and youtube as tese sites were the ones that allowed her to build up a following big enough to propel her records into the charts and hence her first album titled Made of Bricks was launched.

I found this album slightly disappointing, beyond the obvious quality of the hit records there was a lack of depth to the album. Foundations is the best track on the album by far however this was also the biggest hit from the album so it is the one that I had heard to death already before I bought the album, I had hoped for more tracks of a similar quality but I was disappointed.

Kate Nash is a talented song writer and her style of delivery works really well, Birds, Nicest Thing and Mouthwash are all good examples of her alent however here are too many weak and poorly thought out tracks on the album that let the whole thing down.

Track Listings

1) Play
2) Foundations
3) Mouthwash
4) Dickhead
5) Birds
6) We Get On
7) Mariella
8) Shit Song
9) Pumpkin Soup
10) Skeleton Song
11) Nicest Thing
12) Merry Happy

Overall this is one of those albums where it is better to download a few of the tracks rather than buying the whole thing, that way you are not paying for tracks on the CD that you will just skip past after a couple of listens.

Summary: Poor debut album
