Telepathe’s Dance Mother is my favourite album of the moment, followed closely by Fever Ray, Dark is the Night, N.A.S.A. and that School of Seven Bells album I keep playing.
Busy Gangnes and Melissa Livaudais teamed up with Dave Sitek to make an electronic-pop album born out of a drone-arty background. The results are largely on the money thanks to the two girls strong melody and harmony. Their sound is dark, dystopian, menacing, literary and brash.
Tracks removed upon the request of IRMA.
There’ll be an interview coming for State real soon.
