(2/08/09) Monty’s Catch of the Day – Saint Etienne


So Saint Etienne has been one of my all time favorite bands since the early ’90’s, and I fell in love with them after releasing great tracks like “Only Love Can Break Your Heart”, “Nothing Can Stop Us Now”, “Girl VII”, “Calico”, and ”Join Our Club” (I can go on and on). Every album they were releasing was a fantastic piece of work, containing very unique & catchy tunes. Sarah Cracknell has worked magic filling the electronic-pop melodies with her sultry, air-like vocals. Her good looks matched with perfectly with her voice, creating an almost angelic persona. Being a former club DJ, I also got real familiar with the vinyl remixes for a number of their singles, which at times were as good as or better than the original version. Bob Stanley, Pete Wiggs, and Sarah Cracknell have continued making records over the years, and they are set to release their third collection of hits over the past two decades, entitled London Conversations: The Best of Saint Etienne. Today’s catch is the only new track that will appear on the double disk album which is expected to be released later this month - “Method of Modern Love”. Check out the clip below to hear a sample. Enjoy!
