Ladytron New Gift - ‘Velocifero’
‘Velocifero‘ fully transcends the confines of electro-pop with a fresh wave of distorted soul. Mira and Helen - whose disparate vocal styles already provide considerable depth -have evolved both as musicians and songwriters, lending provocative harmonies to songs like “Runaway” and “I’m Not Scared.”
While, rhythmically, there are moments reminiscent of their old favorites Os Mutantes and the Birthday Party, ‘Velocifero‘ cycles through a wide swath of emotion, from sentient and blissful (”Tomorrow“) to forthright and impassioned (”Deep Blue“). “Predict The Day,” which starts off with a faint, whistled melody and crescendos into a bounce-rock onslaught of programmed hi-hats, background vocals, and jagged guitar, typifies the album’s graceful charge against the status quo.
Produced by Ladytron with assistance from Vicarious Bliss (Ed Banger Records) and Alessandro Cortini (Nine Inch Nails).
