The Listening Class
Heathrow
Red, blue, and white, the colours of the Union Jack. Shimmering guitar melodies on top of gritty churning riffs and a rhythm section that buries the beat in your chest. Lead vocalist Matt Fletcher often channels the Furs' Richard Butler.

Description
Heathrow review from "The Big Takeover" http://www.bigtakeover.com/: Heathrow "The Listening Class", (Easter) - Who says Britpop is dead? Not Heathrow. Over the course of this swinging album, the Milwaukee-based quartet parties like it's 1994, delivering a set strong of hooks chock-a-block with melody. The opening "Honesty," with its soulful backing vocal and dancy rhythms, is a page right out of the Primal Scream playbook (dig that interplay between axemen Matt Fletcher and Eric White), while the lovely, piano-driven "Hey Marty" is the best Lloyd Cole single that Cole should have come up with on his own. The highpoint, however, is the haunting "Just Like You," a paean to hopeful mopeyness where you swear you can almost hear Fletcher's heart breaking. But give these guys credit; while they mine the Britpop vein, they didn't fall slavishly under its spell and create a record that only record-collectors could love. Instead, Heathrow has given us a record that reminds us of all the possibilities guitar-pop has to offer. An inspired effort. - John Micek
