Album Description
Available in:
En plus du Greatest Hits annoncé, le groupe informa ses fans que des chansons et démos exclusives seront présentes sur cet album. Le « Best Of », appelé The Sound Of Girls Aloud, sorti le 30 octobre 2006, fut annoncé le 5 novembre 2006 comme premier des ventes britanniques. En plus de sa version standard, une édition limitée comprenant des démos exclusives (comme Hanging on The Telephone ou Singapore) fut mise en vente. Près d'un an après sa sortie, l'album est toujours présent dans le top 100 britannique et s'est vendu à plus de 700 000 exemplaires, le meilleur score pour les Girls Aloud qui retrouvent une seconde jeunesse.
Le principal single de l'album est Something Kinda Ooooh, sorti le 16 octobre 2006 en téléchargement, et une semaine plus tard en sortie physique. Grâce au single, Girls Aloud deviennent le premier groupe britannique à obtenir un top 5 grâce aux téléchargements seulement. La machine est lancée et Something Kinda Ooooh devient un énorme tube, dépassant tous les singles de Chemistry un à un. Alors que les filles pensaient ne plus intéresser personne, ce single et The Sound Of Girls Aloud sont une véritable aubaine pour elles.
Something Kinda Ooooh s'est aujourd'hui vendu à plus de 180 000 exemplaires, presque autant que I'll Stand By You sorti en 2004.
Le single suivant, I Think We're Alone Now, un tube des années 1960 de Tiffany, était le 3e single (après Sound Of The Underground et See The Day) à se joindre à la bataille de la cruciale semaine de Noël. Après une place raisonnable en téléchargement, le single se classa numéro 4 lors de la véritable sortie. Cette position représente donc le 15e single consécutif des Girls Aloud à se classer top 10.
User Album Review
It wasn't supposed to work. The reality TV, instant pop star bubble must have burst by now.Pop Stars: The Rivals - two bands compiled from builders and barmaids around the country fighting it out for the Christmas number 1; peaking in popularity on the crescendo of the TV show only to vanish back into obscurity a few months later.
Girls Aloud totally trounced their boyband rivals One True Voice with their debut the single (and album opener) "Sound Of The Underground", which sounded better than anyone could have expected. Punchy, sassed-up pop over driving neo drum and bass beats captured the formula of the day and has set the tone for much of what's to come next.
The follow up, "No Good Advice", chases hot on its heels with more brassy and in-your-face lyrics of defiance and determination. They may not have written the tracks themselves but someone made the right choice of writer.Sugababes collaborator Brian Higgins injects an element of instant-catchy-cool to the songs without going overboard in trying to shape uber-chic dance floor hits.
Starting an album with your first two singles can be a sign to expect a rapid decline in qualitysoon after, but again the Girls prove us wrong."Some Kind Of Miracle" is superficial pop at its purest.With a vocal hook that gnaws its way into your brain and leaves you afflicted with a tendency to repeat it again and again in your head, it must qualify for future chart success.
Alison Clarkson, a.k.a. 90s popstar Betty Boo, also gets roped in on song scribing duties for "Mars Attack" and the electro stomping "Boogie Down Love". She stamps her trademark quirky 60s style sound effects over rocking beats for two of the album's finer moments.
At 15 tracks long, Sound Of The Underground does seem drag on towards the end but don't let that detract you from the fact that this really is an impressive debut.Only time will tell if they are set to take the mantle as the new Spice Girls or slip rapidly down pops dumper as the new Hear'Say. But their debut album is sure to shut up at least some of their cynics, myself included.
