Reader Reviews
When compared to the incredible, and fairly constant, level of the PSB's earlier work, "Billingual", for the most part does not fair too well. Tracks like "Discoteca" & "Single" are nearly devoid of the smart PSB melodies of "Actually" & "Behavior". Instead these rely on a rhythmic departure, a very rigid Latinesque sound, which gets repetitive very quickly, (As do the chorus melodies) and only succeeds (in my opinion) on "Se a Vida ?". As long as you are prepared to sift through the material, you will find some absolute gems: "The Survivors" = is probably my favorite PSB track since, "Behavior". Fantastic melodies. "Red Letter Day" = Even with some of the structure being fairly generic, it works... well. "Se a Vida ?" = Already mentioned above, but I would highly recommend to purchase the single for this track before, or along with, the album. "To Step Aside" = Is a Solid Effort. If you are interest in trying some post-"Very" straight-laced dance fair: buy the "Somewhere" single. The price is more than right for the phenomenal quality, and running time. The remixes are so distinctive, I listen to them consecutively every time and it never wears thin.
