Voluntary Butler Scheme : 'At Breakfast, Dinner, Tea'
Released: 31st August 2009
Label: Split Records
'At Breakfast, Dinner, Tea' is possibly the dullest thing ever created. Possibly. No, scratch that. Definitely. Oh of course there are quirky moments but in that who the hell actually likes Badly Drawn Boy kind of way. I mean who can say they actually listened to the whole Badly Drawn Boy album anyway. What? You mean he made more then one? Christ.
If you’re on of those people who thinks Coldplay are a little too much for dinner parties then Voluntary Butler Scheme, or Rob Jones as he’s known to his mummy are right up your alley, because they’re/he’s equally as dull and won’t make Maggie from across the road snort pea soap into her bowl with excitement, because there is none, Nada, not even a smidgen. If you can find excitement or more importantly, entertainment on this album then there’s no need to checkity check yourself because the likelihood of you wrecking yourself is so minimal you may as well not exist.
The worst thing about this whole farce is that it goes on for a soul destroying fourteen songs. FOURTEEN SONGS. After the first five you’ll wonder which song was which and by nine you’ll care about as much as George Bush understands. Very. F*cking. Little. Unless of course you don’t exist, then you’ll be all over this. But you don't exist, so it won't bloody matter.
