I didn't have the chance to hear the previous records by Clinic but I'm really enjoying the new one. Anyone?

You've never heard any Clinic prior?

If you like this album you can't do wrong by checking out the rest of their LPs... each one is excellent.

Some reviewers seem to think that sticking too much to one sound is a bad thing, but I really appreciate that Clinic have bothered to carve out their own distinct sound. Personally I agree with the p4k review of Do it! In my opinion it's their best album since Internal Wrangler. It could do with a track like Distortions off that album though.

Will have to dig more in the past of Clinic. I only remember them by the song 'Walking With Thee'

Internal Wrangler is not only a classic, but if you sit around with some friends and listen to it...it just flies by in the most amazing yet simplistic way. You know you just listened to something great and it seemed like the band just flicked their wrist and it was gold.

well, i didnt heard the new Clinic, but it cant be worst than Visitations... If you like the alt-country side of Clinic, check Winchester Cathedral

I've barely begun to explore Do It!, but I'm a big fan of most everything they'd done up to and including Walking With Thee. Both Winchester Cathedral and Visitations felt a bit lackluster, but what I found I really loved were a bunch of the great b-sides that wound up on the (all-too short) recently-released rarities comp, Funf. They've always had killer b-sides ("Cutting Grass" and "The Majestic", esp.) over the years, but having lost my completist-tendencies for them a couple of albums back, I had a whole bunch of great unheard Clinic tunes to discover via Funf.("Lee Shan", complete with Dusty Springfield sample, is a knockout.) Not sure if it's got a U.S. release date pending, but it's definitely worth tracking down if you dig 'em.

I just want to pop in and say that Do It!, whilst not a real grower, is constantly becoming more and more enjoyable. Skip a few tracks and you have a near-perfect party album. Ok, so a couple of songs sound a wee bit similar to earlier songs by the band, but I really like them nonetheless. I expect this one to be in my top 10 for Q2 2008.
