80Skim the surface and you'll find ten slabs of icily slick electro-pop, spend a little time and you'll uncover an altogether darker core; either way Unicorn delivers in whichever form you're looking for.
-
80Unicorn is that rarest of things: a record imbued with genuine talent and emotion which wipes the floor with the majority of its makers' contemporaries, while calling to mind the classic vocals of Karen Carpenter and the pioneering spirit of Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Quite startling.
-
Sadly there's only one track here where singer Tigs' urgent purr and the subtle combination of electronica and bouncy indie pop matches either of those two tracks: the mesmeric 'Slick'. The rest is solid, but with New Young Pony Club back on the scene, tracks like 'Two Hands' feel unremarkable.
