Album review: Example – ‘Playing In The Shadows’

Big tunes, big attitude and a pretty big deal whether you like it or not

The world needs [a]Example[/a] and his gurning rave-hop, lowering the tone and turning the charts into a week-long episode of Skins, calling out [a]Arctic Monkeys[/a] for stealing his parking space as quickly as [a]Ke$ha[/a] for being generally hideous. Truth is, if you’re reading this magazine you’ve probably already made your mind up, but ‘Playing In The Shadows’ thankfully has no time for third album growing-up, upping the bosh factor while now building tunes of some sort of proper scale. Next to this, even with [a]Kelis[/a] on his team, [a]Calvin Harris[/a] looks like nothing but a ninny.
