Belle and Sebastian
Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance
Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance
'Girls In Peacetime Want To Dance' is the long-awaited, ninth studio album from Belle & Sebastian, and follow-up to 2010's 'Write About Love'. Produced and mixed at Maze Studios in Atlanta by Ben H. Allen III, best known for his work with Gnarls Barkley, Animal Collective, and Raury, among others, the band – who have been listening to things like vintage Detroit techno and Giorgio Moroder – have brought a dance party element into their gorgeous tales of sensitive souls navigating a world gone awry. It is perhaps the most inspired and wide-reaching album Belle and Sebastian have ever made. Given that band leader Stuart Murdoch has openly declared himself pro-bubblegum before, it shouldn't come as a surprise that 'Enter Sylvia Plath', 'The Book Of You' and 'Play For Today' have keyboard hooks that recall Scandinavian pop machines past and present.
