Info for Swoon (Remastered)

Swoon, Prefab Sprout's debut album shows the band and songwriter / singer Paddy McAloon in their purest state, before outside hands and Top 20 chart prospects streamlined their approach. Swoon is a highly original record, melding various styles into one unique vision, resulting in a sophisticated sound the band could claim as its own. It has been sited as a strange fusion of Aztec Camera and Steely Dan, which makes sense, but ultimately Swoon proves too complicated for simple comparisons. Too rough and angsty to sit alongside Sade; too melodic, and richly complex to fit with most new wave or "new pop" of the era, Swoon is pure, untainted Prefab Sprout.

"No song on Swoon presents quite the same image of Paddy McAloon, and yet no instance feels false. Astonishingly for a debut, the album plays as a continuous stripping away of defenses. Somewhere within the sinuous bridge of “Elegance,” even the album’s frail sound begins to conceptually conform with McAloon’s woeful play at absolute sovereignty. An act of total vulnerability, Swoon urges its listeners through successive sketches of subjection to ultimately arrive not at revelation, but at an immeasurable void." (sputnikmusic.com)
