Synthpop with female vox, upbeat feel, techno and New Wave elements from this storied British group. It’s a solid album, but nothing groundbreakingly new style-wise for the band. A classically satisfying Ladytron effort. RIYL CHVRCHES, The New Pornographers, Ladyhawke, Goldfrapp, Metric FCC on track 13 Recommended tracks: 4, 10, 8, 6, 9, 1, 2 1. (5:36) * A repetitive, catchy, epic, uptempo synthpop anthem featuring female vocal harmonies and a hi-hat and tambourine drumline. Ends with 30 sec of twinkling synth. 2. (4:05) * Minor key cheesy ‘80s thriller music with some culturally questionable lyrics (e.g. “we are savages”). 3. (4:00) Midtempo synth-heavy crooning that’ll get your head swaying. 4. (3:35) ** Compelling swirling synth gives this one a sci-fi feel. 5. (3:38) Dissonant, but super poppy and bouncy synth. Mira on the vocals for this one. 6. (4:42) * Midtempo, lush synth with lyrics leading us to question how different we are from other species. Ends with a crazy horn swell. 7. (2:51) Floating along, beautiful breathy singing, with a minimal strummy beat. Get high to this song. 8. (4:26) ** Midtempo minor key industrial-sounding synth with punctuated drums that’re indescribably catchy. Defiant lyrics and vocal layering. 9. (4:06) * Uptempo energy with synth horns and a lot of beat. An almost Lady Gaga feel on this one. Ends quietly. 10. (4:29) ** Industrial plodding, ominous feel with breathy vocals. Great crashing instrumental break in the middle. RIYL ADULT. 11. (3:20) Creepy uptempo dissonance. Like being in a mechanical dancer’s funhouse. 12. (4:33) Midtempo plodding beat with ethereal backing vocals. 13. (4:38) FCC: “fucking.” Ballad that sounds like it should be played at an ‘80s prom. | ||
