Bright Yellow Bright Orange. Fans of the Go-Betweens were happily amazed when Robert Forster and Grant McLennan reunited after 12 years and began recording again. This is the second product of their hopefully long-lived reunion. Recording in its native Australia, the duo added bassist and vocalist Adele Pickvance and drummer Glenn Thompson to the band for 2003's Bright Yellow Bright Orange

Well, I guess this means the Go-Betweens are back for good. Itx92s not every day that a reunion becomes. For its excellent high points, there's just something about Bright Yellow Bright Orange that's less than fully satisfying. Obviously, Forster's less inspired moments are mostly to blame, but there's also a certain lack of invention in a lot of the material that's a bit disappointing. Ultimately, I'm glad the Go-Betweens have decided to stick it out, because they're still making some great songs, but their best material is definitely behind them, on classic albums like Spring Hill Fair and Before Hollywood

Following 12 years of solo work, Robert Forster and Grant McLennan surprised faithful fans in 2000 with the much-lauded Friends of Rachel Worth, and the duo have come out swinging again on Bright Yellow, Bright Orange. Forster may have hit his peak here. His wry, tightly crafted stories of human behaviour form the core of the set's strongest songs, highlighted by the brisk and jangly "Too Much of One Thing", the buoyant "Make Her Day" and the organ-adorned "Something for Myself"
The Go-Betweens reside in a strange hinterland full of candyfloss and loneliness that hovers between critical adoration and public ignorance. They have made six shimmering albums packed with arch observations, yet their world remains small, their vision unique. Plundering the acoustic lilt of The Friends of Rachel Worth, the album that saw the resurrected band achieve a second coming with almost embarrassing ease in 2000, Bright Yellow Bright Orange is a perfect example of how guitar pop can sound when stripped of shallow musings and regurgitated anthemics.
