Default La Roux



Synth pop duo from Scotland picked as one of the hottest new bands in 2009 by some British magazine whose name I can't remember. Their selftitled album just leaked a few days ago...I don't care for it much, but I just can't get enough of Bulletproof:

They're actually alright, not too bothered about getting the album though. I liked the song 'In For The Kill' which is the only one I have.

In For The Kill is over-played on the radio and just sounds awful. Bulletproof doesn't sound as bad though, but i certainly won't be picking up their album anytime soon.

I haven't got the album and I've only heard 3 songs off of it and they're not bad "Bulletproof" is quite different from the other two yet still as catchy so it get's my seal of approval.

Oh P.S. I went to see them live and they were quite good they were supporting Lily Allen.

Default La Roux and Ladyhawke

Have you guys heard La Roux tunes? She's a newish girl on the scene bringing what I'd call some 80's tetris style electronic music that is in my opinion actually pretty decent. I'm really enjoying the music that's coming out at the moment like her and Lady Hawke. Let me know your thoughts. Here is some vid's to check out:
