Finally, New Metronomy Material!

I am extremely excited that English, electropop sensation, Metronomy, is finally returning. It's been over two years since the release of their last LP, Nights Out; an addictive jumble of synth, bass-filled electronic beats that in all honesty, just makes you want to dance. Their third album, The English Riviera, is set to be released this April, but til then, the band has offered us its first single, “She Wants.” The track is to be officially released on January 31st and will be available as a free download off the band's website. It's a little different, more groovy, and has more of a laid back feel then past Metronomy work. However, before you know it, it's in your head; with its emphatic drum beat, irresistible bassline, monotonous, humming synth and Joseph Mount's consistent tone of short-strung lyrics. It's an interesting change. Whatever the case, I cannot wait until April, I need this album now.
