"Life As It Should Be is the most coherent,listenable and approachable instrumental effort I''ve heard in a while, especially within the indie rock genre. The ambiance has something of a melancholy vibe- a likely soundtrack to the band name translation- but at the same time you may find yourself smiling and laughing at how sharply they capture and instrumental theme while always injecting the subtle nuances that are unmistakably La Fin du Monde. In many tracks, especially the roller coaster, "We Don''t Necessarily Like Paul," the sound gives the impression of a beautifully arranged musical schizophrenia- you''ll just have to hear it to believe it. The guitar work may not seem to vary or shine to the degree of the percussion, but this can be misleading. The tunes from Life..., like their previous efforts, converse with loud, crafty and original sounds, but they are never overdone; all of the string parts are arranged so as to top off their musicianship while steering clear of excessiveness and redundancy. Unlike their previous efforts, however, Life As It Should Be has been granted the sharp, immaculate recording that the tracks deserve. Hats off the everyone at Prairie Sun who made it possible to achieve the balance of La Fin du Monde''s live energy and their thoughtfulness as musicians. Sincerely, bravo."
