Quirky
8 July, 2008
There are quite a few songs on her album that are really good, my faves are skeleton song, pumpkin soup, foundations and we get on.
I lovee her accent too.. i probably wouldnt like her songs as much if she didnt have it!
There are a couple of songs that arent so great but thats normal for most albums tbh.
I think its an album worth getting for 4.99...

Jul 2007
Much more than just one of those "MySpace sensations" (Sandi Thom bow your head in shame!), Harrow songstress Kate Nash has a real shot at becoming the rising star of 2007 thanks to her underground cult following and press adoration. Kate's fusion of poetry with performance and beats, producing peerless electro-pop confections, topped off with distinctive estuary vocal stylings, has had the internet buzzing for about a year now, and after her debut 7" 'Caroline's A Victim' made it onto every cool remix album this side of Hoxton Square, her first proper single 'Foundations' became an instant chart hit when it was released in early July.
- Q (Magazine) (p.72) - Ranked #47 in Q's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2007" -- "^W]ith solid-gold songs, a heartwarming homespun philosophy and a denouncement of all of fame's fripperies..."
'Made Of Bricks' is the debut album from Harrow songstress Kate Nash. Pop music with indie sensibilities and an experimental edge permeate much of this album, and it is topped off with Nash's distinctive estuary vocal stylings. Includes the single 'Foundations'.
On her impressive debut, MADE OF BRICKS, British singer/multi-instrumentalist Kate Nash presents a confident and dynamic collection of pop songs. While both the young performer's sultry voice and fearless delivery immediately recall her contemporary Lily Allen (see the caustic "Dickhead," in particular), Nash often occupies territory closer to the thoughtful musings of Fiona Apple and Regina Spektor, as evinced on the swooning narrative "Birds" and the playful, piano-led ditty "Skeleton Song." The clear high point of BRICKS, however, is the vibrant, electronica-tinged "Foundations," a track that catapulted Nash to fame in the U.K., and fully showcases her biting wit and keen sense of melody.
London singer-songwriter Kate Nash built a reputation through gigs and Internet word of mouth. Emerging alongside Jamie T and Jack Penate, Nash gave a unique, girl's-eye view of the edgy new school of British singer-songwriters. Her debut single, the somewhat atypical "Caroline's a Victim," came over as an electro-clash Lily Allen; the double-A side, "Birds," was more representative of her quirky, acoustic pop, boasting hip-hop beats and thrift-store keyboards. The follow-up, "Foundations," shot to number two on the U.K. singles chart, while her debut album, MADE OF BRICKS, promptly topped the U.K. album charts upon its release in 2007.
