He de reconocer que no tenía ni idea de ella hasta unas semanas. En cuanto he escuchado sus temas, me ha enganchado. Y era el concierto que más ilusión me hacía, cada uno tiene sus gustos. Pues mi gozo en un pozo, Santogold no actuará por motivos de salud, gracias a mi amiga M por avisarme!! Como es díficil enterarse en Salamanca de las cosas si no sales de casa. Después de mucho buscar, he tenido las luces :) de ir directamente al blog del FIACyL y ahí estaba la confirmación. Dado que el MySpace de la artista no ponía nada,aunque a juzgar por los comentarios en su perfil,no parece que sea el único concierto ha tenido que cancelar. Al menos no nos quedaremos sin actuación, en su lugar The right ons ocuparán el hueco. Las comparaciones son odiosas y más en este caso. Así que, agradecer a la organización la rapidez de cubrir el hueco. Y agradecer a la banda nacional venir de nuevo a Salamanca a ofrecernos su música. En mi caso será la primera que les vea, a ver qué tal ^^

Following the success of her first single in five years, Kiss Your Mama!, comes the album Somewhere In The Real World which shows off her maturity and musicianship.

Hoy se inicia el FIACyL en la Plaza Mayor con la performance de Kitonb y después Orishas llenarán la Plaza de sus ritmos latinos.
PLAZA MAYOR, SALAMANCA- 22:30H**KITONB-CARILLION 3.O**
Llega el teatro extremo a la Plaza Mayor. Las estructuras de metal empiezan a emerger en el epicentro de la ciudad. Kitonb llega desde Italia para mostrarnos la danza desde las alturas. Acrobacias circenses con maquillajes, luces, música… todas las ramas de las artes escénicas llevadas al extremo.-FIACyL-blog
PLAZA MAYOR, SALAMANCA- 23:30H **ORISHAS**
Desde la Habana, tres pedazo de mulatos nos traen el ritmo más guasón. Róldan, Ruzzo y Youtel forman Orishas, un compendio musical basado en el hip-hop de calle fusionado con ritmos latinos. Tras el gran éxito que tuvieron en España, muchos los conoceréis por su primer disco ” A lo Cubano” y su famoso estribillo: “A lo Cubano, Botella´e ron tabaco habano, chicas por doquier, Ponche en Café Guano” o por la aparición de uno de ellos en una famosa serie Española de la TV.
Ahora vuelven ,y lo hacen, con nuevo disco: “Cosita Buena”, que presentan en España con el primer single “Bruja”. Un tema muy diferente a lo que estamos acostumbrados a escuchar de Orishas y con un video-clip, donde se hace un guiño a la película “Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!” de Russ Meyer.En el participa una Rosi de Palma, que interpreta a Tura Satana, famosa actriz erótica de los 70´s y que trae a los cubanos de cabeza. ¿Gozaremos de la presencia en este festival de la ya conocida chica Almodovar? Nos vemos en la Plaza y desvelaremos esta incógnita.Y para los más frikis, aquí tenéis, otro enlace a la película original para que os animéis a verla. Todo un exitazo de los años 70 del que se dice fue el creador del cine Erótico: Russ Meyer. - FIACyL-blog

Este fin de semana el Festival Internacional de las Artes de Castilla y León se estrena el 30 de Mayo en la Plaza Mayor con un espectáculo de la compañía Kitonb llamado "Carillon 3.0" (a las 22.30h), para después dejar paso a la actuación, sin duda una de las más esperadas, del conocido trio Orishas.
Pero para mi lo más interesante aparte de la actuación que parece será espectacular de Kitonb. Es la actuación de una banda que no conocía. Pero después de verla en varios blogs y websites, decidí escucharla, y menudo sorpresón. Me gusta MIA, asi que, no es raro que me guste lo que he escuchado de Santogold.
Santogold también estará en el Summercase (18 y 19 de Julio, en Madrid y Barcelona)
El año pasado, Santogold, artista y residente en Nueva York, lanzó al mercado una de las grabaciones que definieron el año 2007, un sencillo de 12 minutos con dos caras. Sus pistas, aun sin masterizar, fueron pinchadas por Michael Jackson y posteriormente escuchadas en el Ipod de Gaddafi levantando una revolución que llegó hasta los oídos de Bjork, quien invitó a Santogold como telonera de su gira.
Ahora, el extraordinario talento detrás de ambas pistas está preparada para presentar su álbum de debut, una colección salvajemente ecléctica y coherente. Tan desafiante e innovador como sus colaboradores (Diplo, Disco D, Sindem) podrían desear, el álbum reconfigura el dub, pop, rock e influencias electrónicas en un dulce veneno que aúna con poderosas melodías pop.
Esto es mejor que bueno; esto es oro, SANTOGOLD !
In English in Music.Download.com:
Representing the dirty hipsters of BK, Santogold is like a slightly more pop version of political club-rap queen, M.I.A. Big, warbly basslines stumble drunkenly behind the lead singer's brassy, robot sass--and the end result is music you can rage out and endless drink Pabst to all night long.

What I'm searching for to tell it straight, I'm trying to build a wall Walking by myself down avenues that reek of time to kill If you see me keep going be a pass by waver Build me up, bring me down just leave me out you name dropper Stop trying to catch my eye I see you good you forced faker Just make it easy You're my enemy you fast talker
Chorus: I can say I hope it will be worth what I give up If I could stand up mean for the things that I believe
What am I here for I left my home to disappear is all I'm here for myself Not to know you I don't need no one else Fit in so good the hope is that you cannot see me later You don't know me I am an introvert an excavator I'm duckin' out for now a face in dodgy elevators Creep up and suddenly I found myself an innovator
[Chorus]
Change, change, change, I want to get up out of my skin tell you what if I can shake it I'm 'a make this something worth dreaming of
Jakob Dylan is releasing his first solo record, Seeing Things, on June 10th from Columbia Records, and on it, marks a distinct new direction for himself. Needing something different from the set sounds of The Wallflowers, Dylan stripped back the production to create a powerful, unblinking album influenced by the timeless honesty of American roots music.
Get a good preview of the album with new track, "Something Good This Way Comes" which brings out the hope and optimism from the dramatic setting of Seeing Things. Calling to mind artists like Ryan Adams and The Jayhawks, Jakob Dylan has found a new and quite pleasing avenue for his music.
Info en Filter-Mag.com: There's nothing better than having a crush. It gives you butterflies in your tummy and a looming sense of excitement. But what happens if the person you're crushing on is a good friend? or even worse, you're both already in relationships. Conundrum! New York songbird, Jaymay feels your pain because she's been there too.
"Gray or Blue" is a love letter from Jaymay to her object of affection. As she wonders if the reward out weighs the risk of jeopardizing a friendship, she can't help but stare at his mouth without "wondering what it tastes". As the cuteness drips from her voice, you find yourself rooting for her and her crush. Will they push forward, friendship and exes in their rear view mirror - or is this song all that they've got?
Hope for the best as you listen to this love gush.

El 31 de Mayo se edita Postcards , el debut de esta banda australiana, entre sus temas,uno era "Animals",el cual ya mencionamos en el blog. En Estados Unidos según Amazon.com será el 1 de Julio,cuando esté el disco disponible. Con muchas ganas de escucharlo estamos Julia ;) y yo.

Somewhere in between art rock and wistful pop lie Sydney four-piece Sparkadia, whose debut album 'Postcards' is quite possibly the most replete and accomplished debut you'll hear this year. Formed by childhood friends, 25-year-olds Alex Burnett (vocals, guitar) and Dave Hall, (drums) in 2004, the band became a reality with the addition of Nick Rabone (bass) and Tiffany Preece (keyboards, guitar, vocals). Together, they write modern pop songs, pop songs that explode and shimmer with choruses that never leave your head and hooks that floor you on the first listen. 'Postcards' offers up a dozen snapshots of life that meld bittersweet lyrics and floating melodies with a sunny spin on heartbreak, including the singles 'Too Much To Do', 'Morning Light' and 'Animals'.
Para celebrarlo os dejo el recopilatorio de Enero 2008 que hice para la amiga Kaa.Mucho quedó fuera, como "No one's gonna love you" de Band of horses, "You're a wolf" de Sea Wolf, algún tema de Cloud Cult y unos cuantos más. Si encuentro la lista de los que no pudieron ser,os la pongo en el blog.
Muchas gracias a los que os pasáis por aquí de vez en cuando. Y sobre todo, dejáis algún comentario o un emilio.
I hope you enjoy these songs. If I find the list of songs that couldn't be in the compilation, I'll put you in the blog.
Thanks for dropping in the blog, and leave comments or send emails. Thanks to the readers and the musicians who leave me listen to their music. I know I have pending posts, sooner or later your music will be in this little blog ;)
Banda canadiense que hemos mencionando en el blog. El post sobre ellos lo debimos hacer en el blog de MySpace. Asi que,algún día habrá que hacer uno aquí para saber qué discos tiene el trio.
Una de las canciones que suena en el blog (player #1 2008)
Step on the tracks Feel you're alive It's not any worse Closer in time It's like a perfect picture of Ordinary life You hit the bottom To see if you're alive... You'll be here some time (tears are in your eyes) -? Bending backwards to look behind Pushing forward, killing in time You thought it would change in time You thought it would change your mind You thought you'd be first in line You thought it would change your life It's like a perfect picture of Ordinary life You hit the bottom To see if you're alive... You'll be here some time (tears are in your eyes) -? You'll be better off not wasting your time A sentimental heart is always last In line A sentimental heart is always last In line It's like a perfect picture of Ordinary life You hit the bottom To see if you're alive...
It's like a perfect picture of Ordinary life You hit the bottom To see if you're alive... To see if you're alive...
Hoy he leido Sophie Muller y resulta que otro de los videos de The Kills también ha sido dirigo por ella. Asi que, he ido a la Wikipedia, para ver todos los videos que ha creado y hay una lista interesante.

Amazon.com: This duo subtly and organically fuses pop, glam, blues, art-punk, and hip-hop in a manner that flits between light and dark, funny and morbid, experimental and cute. The result is a short, sharp twelve track album of sensual, fresh, and atmospheric songs. A reminder that no one on earth makes rock 'n' roll quite like The Kills. Previous albums "No Wow" and "Keep On Your Mean Side" have sold over 70,000.
Después de "Ur so gay", nueva tema "I kissed a girl".Deseando estoy escuchar el tercero ^ô^ ¿? Su disco de debut One of the Boys se editará el 17 de Junio.
This was never the way I planned, not my intention. i got so brave, drink in hand, lost my discretion. It's not what i'm used to, just want to try you on. i'm curious, for you, caught my attention.
I kissed a girl, and I liked it. The taste of her cherry chapstick. I kissed a girl, Just to try it. I hope my boyfriend don't mind it.
It felt so wrong, It felt so right. Don't mean I'm in love tonight.
I kissed a girl, And I liked it. (I liked it)
No, I don't even know your name, It doesn't matter. Your my experimental game, Just human nature. It's not what good girls do, Not how they should behave. My head gets so confused, Hard to obey.
I kissed a girl, and I liked it. The taste of her cherry chapstick. I kissed a girl, Just to try it. I hope my boyfriend don't mind it.
It felt so wrong, It felt so right. Don't mean I'm in love tonight.
I kissed a girl, And I liked it. (I liked it)
Us girls we are so magical, Soft skin, red lips, so kissable, Hard to resist, so touchable. To good to deny it. Ain't no big deal, Its innocent.
I kissed a girl, and I liked it. The taste of her cherry chapstick. I kissed a girl, Just to try it. I hope my boyfriend don't mind it.
It felt so wrong, It felt so right. Don't mean I'm in love tonight.
I kissed a girl, And I liked it. (I liked it)

Amazon.com: The first studio album from Alanis Morissette since 2004, Flavors Of Entanglement fuses the organic and the techno prompted by producer Guy Sigsworth (Madonna, Björk). Incorporating beats, loops and synthesizers,the album was designed, says Morissette,so listeners can dance your face off. Balancing introspective confession and delirious joy, the global and the personal, Flavors Of Entanglement is a tasty new musical feast from one of pop's most intriguing artists.
Gavin Rossdale, cantante de la gran banda Bush y después de Institute, debutará en solitario el 3 de Junio de este 2008,con Wanderlust. Bush, banda británica con más proyección en Estados Unidos, ha tenido muchos éxitos, y Gavin ha formado familia con la cantante de No Doubt, Gwen Stefani.

Amazon.com: Wanderlust is the debut solo album by Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale released by Interscope Records in June 2008. It is his first LP since Institute's Distort Yourself in 2005. The lead single "Love Remains The Same" was released digitally on April 1, 2008. The album was produced by Bob Rock and finds Rossdale collaborating with drummer Josh Freese, guitarist Chris Traynor (also formerly of Bush), bassist Paul Bushnell and keyboardist Jamie Muhoberac. Gavin was the lead singer/songwriter for the UK post-grunge rock band Bush. Their first album, Sixteen Stone (1994), was a huge commercial success. Almost overnight, Bush went from playing small pubs in London to headlining arenas in the US, the result of extensive, non-stop touring. Fast forward to 2008, married with children with Gwen Stefani of No Doubt fame.
Este tema representó ayer a Francia en Eurovisión (RESULTADOS). Dicho tema pertenece a "Sexuality",el último trabajo de Sebastian Tellier.
El video está dirigido por Ace Norton. El cual también dirigió otro de los videos que hemos puesto aqui The Mountain Goats - Sax Rohmer #1. Y también ha dirigido videos para Blog Party y Aesop Rock.
No llegó a sonar en el blog,porque no cambiamos de player hasta hace poco y los MP3s antiguos no los he añadido. Pero por si aún no conocéis esta "infecciosa" canción, aquí os dejo su video.
Esta banda ya ha sido mencionada unas cuantas veces en el blog. Y todo porque nos enamoramos de su canción "Buildings and mountains",que conocimos gracias a Filter-mag.com. De ella hemos puesto el MP3, la letra y el video. Y ha sido una de las razones de mayor número de visitas en el blog. El tema en cuestión ha sonado en Anatomía de Grey. Muy propicio para promocionar su primer disco KEEP COLOR.
(6 Mayo 2008, Chop Shop Records)
1. Buildings & Mountains (Album Version) 4:48 2. Golden Sand (Album Version) 3:48 3. Feelin' The Future (Album Version) 4:50 4. Weatherbeaten (Album Version) 3:42 5.

Give Arm To Its Socket (Album Version) 3:53 11. Stranger To The Eyes Of a Child-Man (Album Version) 3:43 12. Cast On, Cast Off (Album Version) 3:23
Amazon.com Epic yet intimate, tracks like "Feelin' The Future" and the towering "Buildings & Mountains" see the Kansas City-based quintet weaving future folk, euphoric psychedelia, and exuberant symphonic pop with intricately crafted electronic textures and uncommon emotional depth. The result is a bold and beautiful collection of strikingly human music that holds an aural mirror to our ever more technologically integrated society. "It's a sound that's half organic and half synthetic, kind of like how all of our lives are now," says singer Kenn Jankowski. "It's the common theme throughout all our songs and we tried to approach it audibly as well."
Si no lo mencioné ya, lo digo ahora, Coldplay darán un concierto gratuito en Barcelona, concretamente será en el Espacio Movistar. Asi que, supongo que el MySpace Secret Show será otra banda ¿cuál??

Editorial Reviews
Weezer - one of the biggest and most influential bands of the last decade will for the third time in its six-album history release a self-titled album. The new album will hit streets on June 24 through DGC/Interscope Records. To distinguish it from the other eponymous albums it's being referred by people as "The Red Album." Comprised of sessions produced by Rick Rubin, Jacknife Lee and the band itself, the album is adventurous and undeniable Weezer pop-rock. The first single, the quirky and catchy "Pork and Beans," was recorded under the watch of the Irishman Lee and will soon be a Weezer classic.
Hay que hacer algún día un post con todo lo de este hombre. Fue de los primeros que descubrí en mis inicios en MySpace y me encantó. A ver si me entero de todos los discos que tiene. De momento nos quedamos con su último video "Rock and roll" de su disco Sounds like this.
En Zeon's Music Blog también podéis encontrar en el post linkado, otras 4 covers más, entre las que destaco una nueva versión de Yael Naim. Conocía su gran cover de "Toxic" de Britney Spears, y ahora también tenemos "Bachelorette" (original de Bjork) ---
Gran tema del último trabajo de Band of Horses. El video no es muy allá, sólo es una excusa para darte a conocer este tema por si aún no lo conoces. Hubo gente que tardó en escuchar su temazo Funeral, lo mismo también te ha pasado con éste. Para Polaco (por incluirlo en su última recopilación) y DasYuden (por gustarle BOH, y por pensar incluir No one's gonna love you, aunque al final, a él y a mi se nos quedara fuera de la recopilación) de Cajatonta.tv .

The Helio Sequence's latest music video for the song Keep Your Eyes Ahead was made by Whitey McConnaughy and friends. It was filmed in various places in Portland, OR in the wee hours of the night.-SubPopRecords
De rebote en YouTube, me he encontrado con estos británicos. Y el tema Zeitgeist no está nada mal, con ganas de tenerlo para mi reproductor. De momento, me conformaré con el tema descargable en su MySpace, "The absence of a good plan".
VIDEOSPRINT are a Guildford based 5-piece who formed in the summer of 2005. It all began after an impromptu drunken decision that was made shortly after guitarist Jack and bassist Henry met the tall, not so dark, but amply shouldered guitarist - Owen. Jack and Owen had previously been in the same maths class together but were blissfully unaware of the magical guitar chemistry that would soon explode from their loins.
It wasn't until the next day when the hangovers had subsided that they realised they had no drummer. They recruited the renowned black love stallion Simon Facey, for his drumming abilities and chiseled jawline. Then, the vocalist was sealed in the very same fashion, when on a drunken night out, Owen came across Ross at the station and exclaimed, "Oi you tit. You're gonna sing for our band". This potent concoction would soon take the name VIDEOSPRINT, and the boys have been playing together ever since.
Since then VIDEOSPRINT have been dealt several blows, (mainly between Jack and Henry), with a band dynamic that can be described as tempestuous at best. However, after much middle manning from Shoulders these blows have only made them stronger. God speed VIDEOSPRINT......God speed!
Zeigeist es un grupo sueco (Gotemburgo) que en el ultimo año ha despertado cierta curiosidad mediatica en su pais, mas que nada respecto a sus shows, un despliegue de vestuario, decorados y poses prefabricadas que facilmente podrian envia a su musica a un segundo y lejano plano.
Encima, a la primera y suceptible escucha vemos que, en algunas canciones, roban descaradamente a lo Robin Hood, saqueando inspiracion de los "ricos" (Kate Bush, Howard Jones, Gorillaz, The knife) para darle a los "pobres" (ellos).
Pero caramba, que funciona.
La gran parte de "The jade motel" pesa con meritos propios, y muchos de esos detalles "prestados" bien podrian haber sido obviados, porque aun sin ellas la cosa funciona casi a la perfeccion. Para que poner una melodia de Gorillaz en "Dawn night", cuando la cancion es tan buena sin ella? (imaginate a los Bee gees haciendo europop, y olvidate de Scissor sisters). "The lake" es otra cancion tremenda, aun sin ese puente tomado por asalto a Howard Jones, y ese ritmo tan The knife.
"Humanitarism" es pop maquinal, cortante, frio, escandinavo, con esos sintes gelidos que tanto me gustan, "Wrecked metal" usa bien la ritmica y el tempo del italo para construir una muy buena cancion. "Presurized chamber" es brillante: dance pop bien europeo y melancolico, pegadizo, emotivo y bellisimo. "Flight with shattered mirrors" usa el sano metodo de superponer coros (gracias Abba). "Cuffs" entrega uno de los momentos mas oscuritos del disco, hasta que explota en otro estribillo de la alta escuela sueca.
Eso si, "Tar heart" no podria sobrevivir sin ese estribillo "inspirado" en "Running up that hill". Pero el balance final es totalmente positivo. Totalmente.

About the Artist There's no shortage of good, timeless material on Division. "Actions and Motives" is a fist-pumping rocker interwoven with atmospheric guitar tendrils, the first single "Beautiful" is brooding and evocative, suffused with ringing, distorted guitars and melancholy harmonies and "Dying Youth" starts with a poignant classical guitar progression and yearning vocals before weeping strings and a stirring chorus take the track over the peak and somewhere between euphoria and despair. Then there's "Alabama," a psychedelic-tinged song flavored with sitar, Indian percussion and acoustic guitar.
As refreshing, accomplished and united as Division sounds, there was a period when it looked like 10 Years might never finish the record. "The title of the album is self-explanatory in the sense that we had to become so divided as individuals - and as a group - to create this," Hasek explains. "Because we all have such strong personalities and opinions, we had many different directions to look at things from. But when we all came together as a unit, we were able to make our best music ever." The band felt the added pressure of growing as musicians while living up to the success of The Autumn Effect and its hit single "Wasteland."
Ultimately, 10 Years overcame their insecurities by worked together as a cohesive songwriting team, and vibing off each other instead of following anyone else's advice.
"We got so fed up we just said, `Forget everybody,' and we started only listening to each other, which we hadn't been doing at all," Vodinh says. "We didn't care about each others opinions for a long time, and suddenly we all joined hands and said, `We have to become a brotherhood again. We have to bond together.' And that's when everything finally took shape."
In June 2007, 10 Years entered a Seattle studio with producer Rick Parasher (Pearl Jam, 3 Doors Down) and started tracking Division. Parasher was far more hands-on than Josh Abraham, who had produced The Autumn Effect, and, while it took a while to adjust to the change in approach, the band members benefited from his intense interest and experience. "Rick was in there every second of every day and he had a real vision," Vodinh says. "When we first got there, it wasn't exactly the same vision we had, but we slowly found a medium where we could all be on the same page."
"It was through this album that we really found ourselves," "Hasek says. "We needed to really go through that hard time to really respect each other and the life and opportunity we'd been given. A lot of people get thrown into this kind of lifestyle and they just use it up real quick and take it for granted and then use it up and it's gone. And they're left scratching their heads going, `What happened?' I'm pretty sure now that's never going to happen to us."
Product Description Creativity isn't manufactured on an assembly line. It can't be scheduled or forced and when it's not coming there's nothing to do but wait. That's what the members of Knoxville, Tennessee quintet, 10 Years, discovered when they started writing songs for their second album, Division, the follow-up to their debut The Autumn Effect. Having spent the better part of two years on the road, the band members planned in October 2006 to take a month off and then dive back into writing mode. They aimed to re-enter the studio in early 2007 and have their second album done by that spring. But just a few weeks after they started coming up with riffs and melodies, it became clear they were going to have to throw away the calendar.
"We could have met our deadlines and gone into the studio in January," clarifies singer Jesse Hasek. "But we decided early on that we weren't going to allow ourselves to run through the motions. We felt like we really needed to challenge ourselves and do something fresh and different. And that took a little longer than we expected."
As it turned out, Division was well worth the wait. Musically eclectic, technically adept and emotionally poignant, the songs shatter preconceptions, revealing a tapestry of previously unexplored influences and a larger array of stunning melodies. Like The Autumn Effect, the new album is filled with enveloping textures and heart-stopping dynamics, but the arrangements are more developed and the songwriting more mature, revealing a cavalcade of styles including metal, hard rock, punk, alternative pop and even classical.
En el 2002, The music se dió a conocer con su álbum homónino, en el que incluía temas que a algunos nunca se nos olvidarán como "The People", gracias a Chema Rey de Bulevar. Y en el 2004 volvieron con Welcome to the North. Este año 2008, la banda británica vuelve con Strength in numbers. Para ir haciendo oído, tenemos el single que da título al nuevo trabajo.
Esta banda es de Nueva York, y parece que no suena mal. Remarco lo de Nueva York,porque buscando su MySpace para ver qué tipo de música hacían, me he encontrado con una banda de Zaragoza, llamada Baskerville.

Amazon.com Cut copy are set to return in 2008 with the shimmering timelessness of 'in ghost colours'. Haunted with machines of the past and sounds of the future, 'in ghost colours' inhabits the kind of space in time where trends are irrelevant and music is about feeling rather than following and 1969 is just as relevant as 2020. At once both jacking and jangly, electronic and organic, cut copy have crafted a record filled with glorious sounds and moods but also unabashedly pop song structures and hooks and melodies for eons. The progression from 'bright like neon love' to 'in ghost colours' is brazenly apparent from opening track 'feel the love', an acoustic guitar led stomp of a space rock tune, instantly unforgettable and with recognizable cut copy sheen. Where 'bright like neon love' was charmingly vague and hazy, 'in ghost colours' is to the point and efficient in it's songcraft, with vocals much more apparent and whitford's imprint all over every track. The record is sewn together with passages of woozy dreamscapes between the straight out jams.

In a move utterly befitting a song named “Lights & Music,” Cut Copy’s video features both lights and music. The music is a funky blend of kickin’ synthesizers and New Romantics vocals with a steady beat at the heart of the song, whereas the lights strobe in various colors, smothering the band members in rainbow shades.-Filter-mag.com
