Album Review

Six full-lengths and 12 years into their career, Groove Armada have produced their dark album, a record that translates the dense, frenzied sound of Anglo-American dance-pop of the 2000s into the context of the duo's highly stylized productions. There's a clear focus to the record, too, virtually all of it centered on mainstream dance of the '80s Hi-NRG synth pop variety, including nods to Bronski Beat, Soft Cell, and Human League.

Customer Reviews

Already addicted

I'm not overly familiar with Groove Armada's body of work, but from what I've sampled this album seems like a bit of a departure for them. It's incredibly catchy, and extremely varied. There are almost as many singers as there are tracks.

The album is sublimely 80s in tone and mood, but modernizes the style while zeroing in on the emotive and theatrical hooks that made that decade's pop music so iconic. There are some really hard-driving, powerful melodies here (Look My In The Eye Sister is an early favorite), and some remarkably gentle, downtempo pieces to marinate in.

This is an extremely well-done, well-produced piece of electronic joy, and a near-perfect ode to a decade that, musically, wore its emotions on its sleeve. It's a keeper.

Groove Armada is Unique

I love Groove Armada and they did it again. With a brand new style with downbeats they created new songs that are awsome.
I think that everyone should listen to this cd, and Groove Armada fans should defenitely buy this album.

Love the song History, but...

...is there something wrong with the quality of the download? Played it on different computers, iPods, etc. and always get that strange high-pitch background noice.
