Wild Beasts have made a record of earthly pleasures that sounds thrillingly widescreen, open and in awe of life; equally intoxicatedand disturbed by the possibilities of pleasure. Two Dancers is a streamlined, minimalist and user friendly Wild Beasts,moving as God had designed them to, with equal grace and gusto, equally elegant and ugly. The follow up from last yearscritically loved Limbo, Panto, which often recalled Orange Juice and The Smiths, "Two Dancers" is lush and elegiac, a slightlymore luxurious ride, even though Wild Beasts haven't reconfigured their sound in any obvious way; it's just the work of a bandmaturing in a sensitive and uncompromising way rather than feeling obliged to banish their quirks in pursuit of greater success.A smart, quintessentially English pop record by a bunch of creative young lads that doesn't scream of testosterone.
