    Neon Neon has created an album that isn't so much a straight-up replica of '80s excess as one that puts all of that indulgence into perspective, both emotionally and musically.

    US production whiz hires SFA mainman, perfect pastiche synth-pop ensues.
  3. Dot Music

    The interesting theme doesn't last.

    This is an amazing album. retro-futuristic - the best influences I could imagine, great guest spots keep things banging and crossing genres without getting messy. If only more people would be this adventurous. Can't waiit to hear what the band do next :-)… Expand

    One of the best albums of the year so far. This one should be ranked way higher.
