Saint Etienne - Finisterre

Often the way it's gone with Saint Etienne records in the past is that, after an initial diffuse "oh this is quite nice" response, I lose interest before one day being hit hard by something about it while it's playing in the background and therefrom taking it completely to heart...so my initial diffuse "oh this is quite nice" response to Finisterre may well just be a waystation to some deeper response/relationship. But somehow I don't think so - I've never previously, after all, been listening to a Saint Etienne record for the first time while already being completely and knowingly in love with the band, and so I think the truth about this one might be that it just is pleasant and a bit ho-hum...but time will tell, of course.
