Description

For his second album, Elvis Costello finetuned his aesthetic by abandoning the California studio cat accompanists of his debut for the more aggressive, quirky and very British Attractions, who would define Costellos sound over the next several years. Where My Aim is True highlighted Costellos rootsy influences the Band, etc., This Years Model wholeheartedly embraces the new wave outwiththeold mindset, favouring tightly wound ferocity over backporchisms. Irresistibly catchy, in a twitchy, neurotic, whiteknuckled way, This Years Model is Costello at his edgiest.
