Erasure - Snow Globe
One of the more palatable additions to the Christmas cannon, and a really good Erasure record to boot.»
Buy now from:
The new Erasure album, Snow Globe, is a collection of original compositions and seasonal classics. The forthcoming first single, 'Gaudete', is Erasure's take on the traditional Latin carol, which will be recognisable by many after Steeleye Span's version in the early 70s. Unlike the bells and whistles, glitter and tinsel sets that crowd the market come Christmas-time, 'Snow Globe' is possessed of something more in the wistfully, strangely subdued celebratory mould of recent seasonal albums by Tracey Thorn and Kate Bush. Not that 'Snow Globe' sounds like either of those albums of course, 'Snow Globe' is 110% pure Erasure!
