![]() ![]() The rest of the band have provided a set of jazzy, jaunty backings that perfectly compliment the songs and the various singer's voices. Paul Heaton has come up with a series of great songs telling tales of real life in his usual cynical, sarcastic style. A record for people who appreciate the importance of good lyrics and a well crafted musical backing that is never too clever for its own good or overshadows the lyrics. This is the seventh album from Hull's greatest musical export, the Beautiful South. Reality is a bitter pill to swallow, so it's fortunate that the Beautiful South wrap it up in sugar. Theirs has never been a particularly cheery lot in life, but even by the Beautiful South's standards, Painting It Red is a dark album. Elsewhere, they sing about relationships amid expanding waistlines and greying hairs ("'Til You Can't Tuck It In"), backaches ("If We Crawl") and loveless marriages ("Final Spark").

Moreover, as the band members gets older, so do their themes. The tunes are all radio-ready pop but, as is typical of the Beautiful South, the lyrics pack a bit of a kick. The Beautiful South are one of the few bands who have always managed to be AOR without venturing too far into MOR.
