Second Album Syndrome is one of the most fatal Album Syndrome is one of the most fatal diseases known to music. Glaswegian Steven Lindsay’s first album was at the centre of a good deal of broadsheet lovin, and there’s a whole load of Toyota in-car stereos just anxiously waiting for his second effort, titled ‘Kite’.But he needn’t have to worry. Sure this is an expected shift away from ‘Exit Music’, but in all the right directions…To some this guy is the soft rock star not enough people know about yet. To others he’s at just the right rank, and if too many knew it would just ruin the whole secret.This kind of notion is carried through every genre and generation of music, but whether you like it or not, in a time overflowing with singer songwriters,‘Kite’ has everything a platform should have to boost this guy to the moon.Starting off with one of those really long and pretty instrumentals before moulding into ‘Put Up The Flag’, a delicious five minutes of shear class melody and one mighty chorus, yet the first of this record’s surprises comes in the form of a Pixies cover.Just as Klaxons are more than rivalling The Futurehead’s Best Damn Cover Ever award, Steven Lindsay only goes and transforms ‘Monkey Gone To Heaven’ into an absolute piano-led Frank Black squeal-lacking stormer, which for the record is this album’s first single.
