Jonathan Bree's and Heather Mansfield's latest work, "Structure & Cosmetics", is one of the most shamefully unheralded twee gems of the past couple of years. For those who enjoy twee in the tradition of I'm From Barcelona or Belle and Sebastian - with perhaps a little more sass, a little more class, and a little less of the grating cutesy-gimmicky-typically-twee aspect to their sound - The Brunettes are sure to please. With "Structure & Cosmetics", they seem to finally have realised the potential of twee as a respectable, sophisticated subgenre rather than a musical playground.-PTC
