There's no comparison man! Living Colour was a rock out, mostly uptempo album with some rap overtones. This is almost orchestral/classical with bit of ambient and touches of prog metal. Nothing like each other!

Ah, the fascinating ways some individuals find to mind-**** themselves. It's like winning a soap box derby when you're opponent actually drives in the GT Sprint Cup.

It's a rather rare album, if you can't find it online or something just let me know and I'll provide another album you can look at or something.

Title: Light and magic
Artiste: Ladytron
Genre: Electronica/Synthpop

Love
1. “Seventeen”. Very catchy, like the vocal.
2. “Turn it on” is great too
3. “Bluejeans” has a great vibe and melody
4. Really like “Evil too”. Seems there may be two singers who take turns, and I definitely prefer one to the other.
5. Love “Startup crime”, though I know the melody is ripped off from some famous song, just can't think of it.

Hate
1. “Flicking your switch”: no emotion in the vocal and it's just soulless
2. “NoHorizons” is awful, plus it's in a foreign language. Sounds like Russian maybe?

End result: I think I'm starting to turn into a synthpop fancier! I really enjoyed this, apart from the odd track.

So, Love or Hate? Love, definitely.

Chances of a full review: 9/10
