CD review

THE SUGABABES new album 'Angels With Dirty Faces' is a surprisingly sexy offering from three such young songsters.

The first track 'Freak Like Me' has enjoyed lots of radio attention, taking the effective backing from the 1980's hit 'Are Friends Electric', and the rest of the CD is no disappointment.

Apart from the other track 'Round Round' that was released and sounds great, the remaining 12 are equally excellent.

With the co-operation of world renown artist Sting, the 'Babes cover 'Shape' putting their own slant on it without ruining the original track, and their 'Breathe Easy; Acoustic Jam' is simple, harmonic and quite beautiful.

From first to last, this album is mature and entertaining. Not just for the enjoyment of teenagers, this CD could proudly sit among anyone's collection.
