11-1991 / New Musical Express / Singles, reviewed by St Etienne (extracts)

Single Of The Week (1)
The Pastels : Thru Your Heart (Paperhouse)
Sarah : Great – worth istening to just for the vocals.
Bob : Stephen’s voice gets lower everytime they put a record out – in another five years he’ll be literally subsonic. Glasgow’s answer to Barry White. Really nice chords changes. I love a bit of melancholy guitar. You can sound like the Velvets if you do it well, but someone like the Darkside do it really badly…
