On Any Normal Monday by Cleaners from Venus.
or Rating:
Performer Notes: Because the fidelity here is rather primitive compared to his later tapes and records, it's likely that only serious Newell/Cleaners fans will want to get this deep into his discography. If (only slightly) funky production values don't bother you (or actually please you), you shouldn't be disappointed with this. The songs are there, and that's the important thing. Nicely catchy, interesting compositions, sung with a sense of humor, especially "Be An Idiot Popstar" (a David Byrne satire, perhaps?) and the lounge-pop satire "A Fool Like You." ~ Richie Unterberger
Professional Reviews: Spin (p.106) - "Martin Newell and assorted crew play cautiously romantic with moments of acidic pessimism..."
Magnet (p.52) - "Newell's sunny, '60s pop nostalgia sat atop a grittier DIY aesthetic, while some of the dub and reggae influences that had been finding their way into punk around the time started popping up on 1982's ON ANY NORMAL MONDAY, too."
Format: Vinyl (1 Disc)
Release Date: 21 April, 2012
Label: Captured Tracks
