Details: Amazon.ca For all the talk of this record's blend of South Asian and northern English pop sounds, the music here sounds neither daringly cross-pollinated nor strangely juxtaposed. Rather it sounds like a rather conventional pop record, one that harkens back to the days when pop didn't have to be sonically conservative and genrespecific. Cornershop's desire to make a pop record, rather than its desire to reconcile its leader's British and Indian heritage, is what makes this a great breakthrough album. --Roni Sarig Product Description Cornershop's second album is one of the most begulingly innovative and enjoyable albums of the year. A brilliant collision of sitar drones, loops, scratching, strange noises, jangling guitars, funky grooves, pure pop genius and the odd bit of twangin', When I Was Born For The 7th Time is a brilliant showcase fo the cross-cultural sonic invention of Tjinder Singh, the band's Anglo-Asian musical mastermind.
