MADNESS Vinyl & CDs

Review: Late last year in November marked the arrival of Theatre of the Absurd Presents C'est la Vie, a thirteenth studio album from much loved British ska collective Madness. It is their first new studio work in almost a decade and now it arrives on double vinyl. We're told that the record was written with the mantra 'Let Madness be Madness' and that shows with some real musical freedom and plenty of the quirky charms the band has always dealt in. It is uplifting yet melancholic in all the right places and another fine success for this Great British band.
