After a nearly eight-year hiatus, Scritti Politti returned to release an album in 1999, an event that seemed as unlikely as seeing Kevin Rowland in hold-up stockings. However, like Rowland and David Sylvian, Green Gartside risked his credentials as an '80s icon for an additional postscript in the '90s. ANOMIE & BONHOMIE, Scritti's fourth album, suggests that the times had changed more than Gartside. But glossy pop will never be out of fashion and nobody did it with as much verve as Scritti on CUPID AND PSYCHE '85. Although not quite on par with its predecessor, ANOMIE & BONHOMIE is well worth the wait, especially when it ventures to extremes.
Reminiscent of the polished PROVISION, "Umm" bursts at the seams with ideas, and "Here Come July" is a gleeful new-wave rush. Conversely, "First Goodbye" is as unashamedly tear-soaked as "Oh Patti" 10 years before, and "Brushed With Oil, Dusted With Powder" is an opulent swoon that namechecks Highbury Fields and Hollywood. Such contrasting perspectives lie at the heart of the highlight--"Tinseltown to the Boogiedown"--where the youthful rapping talents of Mos Def, Lee Majors, and Me'Shell Ndegeocello are enlisted for a moment of irresistibly funky pop.
