Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
2007 | Rock

"This is the easily the best album of the last 10 years. I saw him recently, in London with Hot Chip, and it was absolutely fucking brilliant. James Murphy can do no wrong, and being an unlikely front man shouldn’t be any reason to stop you from being one. He just makes me think "I wish I’d thought of that. I wish I’d written that song." It can be hard to mix dance and alternative rock, but he does it brilliantly. I see a connection between what we did as New Order and what he does. The sad thing is, we were playing a tour in France with New Order and LCD were there, and they were all there on laptops. I saw them and thought, 'Should I go over and say I think you’re fucking brilliant?' And I decided: no."

Dire and predictable script. (0 more)
Mediocre and lumbering action movie.
This has Gerard Butler too old/out of shape to be a credible presidential protection officer. None of the style of Clint Eastwood's "In the Line of Fire" which had a similar story. As a plus point, it didn’t have the distasteful xenophobia of “London Has Fallen” (which I rather generously gave a 3/10). So I feel I should at least top that. But again I feel I’m being generous. It’s all crushingly mediocre, and if I can remember any of it after three months, I’ll be very unlucky indeed!

Fast-paced, dark and clever
The best way to describe the plot of the book is written on the front cover "He's seen too many young people die She's afraid he might be next."

The 'he' mentioned above is one of the main characters DS Noah Jake, the 'she' being his partner/colleague DI Marnie Rome. Both characters are deep, well-thought out with difficult and troubling back stories.

The story is very realistic and references true life events that have affected the London. It felt very real and I can see where Sarah Hilary (author) gets her inspiration from.

As with most crime novels, it is fast paced with twists and turns throughout. The characters/suspects/witness are all very clever and different with a key input to the story.

I would recommend this book.
