Saint Etienne: Tales From Turnpike House

Feb 1, 2006, 3:39pm

I just started listening to the new Saint Etienne album, Tales from Turnpike House. It’s a concept album about an apartment complex. I haven’t listened to it a ton yet, but superficially it seems to flow well together and capture the urban apartment complex theme. I’m liking Milk Bottle Symphony and Lightning Strikes Twice right now. Also be sure to go to their official Web site, it’s a great example of a concept-based design. First person to name what the main page mimics gets a dollar.

That does indeed look like the map of the London Tube.
