And the eighties revival continues. Luke Slater, formerly purveyor of deep dark techno, has gone all synthpop on his new album Alright On Top. Half of it is the best album Visage never released. The other half, sadly, sounds like Beloved, or the Aloof [whose singer Ricky Barrows provides vocals here].
The big question though, is: Do I fancy him? He's a weird-looking fella, ain't he, all angular planes, bruised eyes, bullet head. Like Tricky's younger brother. Like a crack-addled waster. Yet like a sensitive soul, a deep kisser, a top shag. "Alright on top?" I should say so!
