SAVAGE GARDEN レコード& CD

Review: ***B-STOCK:Creasing to corners of outer sleeve but otherwise in excellent working condition***


It may be true that not many UK music fans are aware of Savage Garden, but that truth says nothing about the undeniable quality of their uniquely trip-hoppy dream-pop-rock sound. Their 1997 self-titled debut album gave rise to the sung-rap songs 'Truly Madly Deeply' and 'I Want You', which have since become exemplary slices of the '90s sonic cake. Lead singer Darren Hayes' soaring vocals are backed by lush, cinematic production, resulting in an album that is both bombastic and intimate. The pair's sultry leather-jacketed image has aged just as well.
