	Trust (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Trust (1981) is an album by Elvis Costello and the Attractions.
		It is his fifth album, his fourth with the Attractions.
		The songs on the album dealt with a general sense of disenchantment he felt during the time, with the recent election of the Conservative government as well as tensions within his first marriage, which gave them an overall cynical tone.

	e-Wok - Review: Blood and Chocolate (1995 reissue) - Elvis Costello and the Attractions
		Gone is the overslick synth-pop sound found on his previous two albums with The Attractions; gone too are the country-blues strains of King Of America, Costello's previous 1986 release.
		The album continues to be fuelled by blood and chocolate -the cynic and romantic in Costello's make-up unable to reconcile the fact that they share the same personality.
		Blood and Chocolate's bonuses are certainly a lift from the gloom of the majority of the album proper, beginning with EC's collaboration with Jimmy Cliff on "Seven Day Weekend".

	Good news for dark chocolate-lovers? /Astronomy with Tru
		Scientists are far from being able to make specific recommendations for patients based on their research on chocolate, and nutritionists have urged people to be cautious because chocolate is high in fat, sugar and calories.
		Writing in the journal Hypertension, Blumberg's team said when the volunteers ate the special dark chocolate, they had a 12 mm Hg decrease in systolic blood pressure (the top number in a blood pressure reading) and a 9 mm Hg decrease in diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number) on average.
		Blood pressure did not change when the volunteers ate white chocolate.

	Elvis Costello : Blood & Chocolate - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Where King of America was a stripped-down roots rock affair, Blood & Chocolate is a return to the harder rock of This Year's Model.
		The main difference between the reunion and the Attractions' earlier work is the tone -- This Year's Model was tense and out of control, whereas Blood & Chocolate is controlled viciousness.
		Blood & Chocolate doesn't retain that high level of energy throughout the record, however, and loses momentum toward the end of the album.

	Elvis Costello & the Attractions: Blood and Chocolate - Associated Content
		Released in 1986, the album is one of the most highly praised by Costello fanatics, yet is by no means his best.
		What makes Blood and Chocolate a classic is its odd juxtaposition with Costello's previous work.
		While his prior albums are from the standpoint of an aggressive, pissed off young man, Blood and Chocolate presents the artist as a vulnerable and (as Costello put it himself) "pissed off divorcee."

	Elvis Costello
		The middle of the album is highlighted by the acoustic âNew Amsterdamâ with some great wordplay and another stomping cover, this time of Sam & Daveâs weepy âI Canât Stand Up For Falling Down.â âHigh Fidelityâ is usually cited as a highlight too, but Elvisâ vocals sound surprisingly hoarse.
		Overall, the album is a bit bogged down by its complexity and not much diversity towards the end.
		Yeah, the drumming is primitive, itâs based around one note for the most part, and the opening line âblood and chocolate!!!â can make one uncomfortable.

		The spare, cutting sound of the album gave way to a distinctive tightly-wound groove on his next single and first top-20 U.K. entry "Watching The Detectives," which was subsequently added to the US version of the LP.
		The album, which reunited him with Nick Lowe, would be his last record with the Attractions until 1994.
		The album and subsequent tour -- whch featured material from the first three albums, much of it played for the first time in nearly a decade -- were both universally praised.

	Elvis Costello — Blood and Chocolate - Thread
		The centrepiece of Blood and Chocolate is ‘I Want You’, perhaps the scariest six minutes of fucked-up obsession song ever committed to vinyl.
		Speaking of commerce this is, to my knowledge, the third issue of Blood and Chocolate on CD and is part of an ongoing series of re-releases from Elvis Costello’s back-catalogue.
		The extra tracks on this issue are OK if you don’t already own Blood and Chocolate in one of its previous guises.

	Dancing About Architecture: Blood & Chocolate Essay
		The initial reviews of Blood and Chocolate were good, but critics had already spent themselves praising King of America earlier that year, and at that time critics were the only friends Costello's records had.
		He sings of a man in the supermarket shouting at the customers, a boy hiding from a neighbor who once did something really nasty with an axe, thugs caught in tourist traps, children in grown-up clothes, Napoleons dreaming of Russian conquests from their bedrooms where they struggle with jealousy and impotence.
		I first heard Blood and Chocolate when I was 21 and a college friend brought it back to the dorm.

	II. King Of America/Blood And Chocolate
		The only criticism of the album I could offer is that it might be a little too long to sustain the appeal of that same indelible style running through all fifteen songs.
		This one he could not have pulled off without The Attractions, because like Revolver, it is a BAND album, and needs the power and punch of a working combo that’s been through the ringer together in order to present this biting material of love, lust and loss in the correct insane manner.
		Every snare drum hit on Blood and Chocolate is either the sound of a slap across the face or the stroke of an angry coital thrust.

	Elvis Costello: Blood & Chocolate ---Ink Blot Magazine
		He was born Declan Patrick MacManus in London, the son of an Anglo-Irish music-hall bandleader, but his debut album on Stiff Records showed no signs of music-hall bounce at all: My Aim Is True was filled with angry, frustrated, impotent songs informed by punk, reggae, and rockabilly.
		But even as the album was released, Elvis had assembled the crack outfit called the Attractions, and together they formed one of the best working bands in the world.
		Every subsequent album showed more chutzpah and chops, and Costello's clever songs of rage made him a hero to fans on both sides of the Atlantic, but many casual followers deserted him when he branched out into country (Almost Blue), orchestral pop (IbMePdErRoIoAmL), and just plain radio pop (the underrated Punch the Clock).

		However, the album was far from a happy reunion, and
		remains unconvinced that the album was a successful endeavor.
		In hindsight, there were clues to the contrary: the opening track repeats the mantra, "You think it's over now, but this is only the beginning", and the record closes with the song "Next Time Round"...

		A first finale for Costello's working relationship with the Attractions, Blood & Chocolate brings the group together for a series of songs that moves through garage noise ("Uncomplicated"), twisted folk-rock ("Crimes of Paris"), a harrowing Dylan-Lennon homage ("I Want You"), and other genre twistings.
		My music tastes are varied, but my, oh my, Blood and Chocolate is definately the real meal deal.
		My favorite Elvis albums are: My Aim is True, This Year's Model, Armed Forces, Get Happy, King of America, Brutal Youth, All This Useless Beauty, and Blood and Chocolate.

		Fittingly, he used a rousing version of one of the "Blood & Chocolate" songs, "Uncomplicated," to get the Kingsbury Hall crowd to its feet, clapping along.
		He sang the song's last verse without a microphone — demonstrating how acoustically sound the venue is, and also showing off his still-terrific vocal strength.
		If there was a disappointment, it was that none of the set came from his underrated 1986 album "King of America," which is in a similar vein as his more recent efforts.

		Lost in the shuffle of label disinterest at the time, BLOOD & CHOCOLATE is one of their finest moments.
		From the opening blast of "Uncomplicated" to the hypnotically sinister "I Want You," this is a band at their peak.

		Album: My sentimental favorite is Armed Forces (1979), but I'm also fond of This Year's Model (1978), Spike (1989) and Brutal Youth (1994).
		Would be curious to hear PtC's fans describe the album's virtues in more depth (I mean, beyond the few killer tracks like "Shipbuilding"...).
		I think he could record an album with rock re-workings of a lot of his b-sides and unreleased demos from his first few albums and release it now, and it would be one of the top 10 albums of 2006.

	Elvis Costello: Nostalgia
		The end result was one of his finest albums, King of America.
		It was recorded with a stellar band—including several musicians who used to back Elvis Presley—and featured gems like “Brilliant Mistake” and “Sleep Of The Just.” The always prolific Costello followed it up that same year with Blood and Chocolate, an album of power-pop done with the Attractions.
		Just the same, he never forsook his pop roots: One of his biggest hits from this period was Brutal Youth, a new-wave styled reunion album with the Attractions.
