Anno: 17 marzo 1978
Genere: British punk, Pop rock, New wave

Where My Aim Is True implied punk rock with its lyrics and stripped-down production, This Years Model sounds like punk. Not that Elvis Costellos songwriting has changed -- This Years Model is comprised largely of leftovers from My Aim Is True and songs written on the road. Its the music that changed. After releasing My Aim Is True, Costello assembled a backing band called the Attractions, which were considerably tougher and wilder than Clover, who played on his debut. the Attractions were a rock roll band, which gives This Years Model a reckless, careening feel. Its nervous, amphetamine-fueled, nearly paranoid music -- the group sounds like theyre spinning out of control as soon as they crash in on the brief opener, No Action, and they never get completely back on track, even on the slower numbers. Costello and the Attractions speed through This Years Model at a blinding pace, which gives his songs -- which were already meaner than the set on My Aim Is True -- a nastier edge. Lipstick Vogue, Pump It Up, and (I Dont Want to Go To) Chelsea are all underscored with sexual menace, while Night Rally touches on a bizarre fascination with fascism that would blossom on his next album, Armed Forces. Even the songs that sound relatively lighthearted -- Hand in Hand, Little Triggers, Lip Service, Living in Paradise -- are all edgy, thanks to Costellos breathless vocals, Steve Nieves carnival-esque organ riffs, and Nick Lowes bare-bones production. Of course, the songs on This Years Model are typically catchy and help the vicious sentiments sink into your skin, but the most remarkable thing about the album is the sound -- Costello and the Attractions never rocked this hard, or this vengefully, ever again. [The 1993 CD reissue standardized the sequencing of This Years Model on both sides of the Atlantic, restoring the album to its original British running order and adding six bonus tracks. The first three tracks are singles and B-sides, including the classic rant Radio, Radio, the organ-driven 60s pop of Big Tears, and the frenetic Crawling to the USA. The remaining three tracks -- Running Out of Angels, Greenshirt, and Big Boys -- are all demos.]
