By this time they were an act geared to mainstream appetites, and the lighter tone and preponderance of upbeat synthesizer hooks on REPUBLIC suggested a group who had identified their strengths and weaknesses in the four-year interval since their last album. The vibrant tunesmithery that has always been the group's trademark was augmented by a typically polished Stephen Hague production. "Regret" duly became their first major US radio hit. Other effective tracks include set-closer "Avalanche," and "World," the record's most feisty interlude. Format: Vinyl Label: Warner Records Genre: Electronic
