Lots of highlights that I keep coming back to. "Ceci n'est pas un cliche" and "Mantra" stand out -- the latter gives me New Order vibes.

wondered how she performed that live, that's awesome

I finally figured out what this record reminds me of and had to bring it here cause no one outside ilm would get the reference but the Lindstrom & Christabelle vibes are strong

One of the late listens of the year for me.

As I mentioned to the friend who urged me to hear it, it does a very, very savvy and charming way of expressing sentiments that pop music usually is too didactic when it wants to make the same points.

live in Glasgow yesterday it felt like superstardom is in the post. It was in the top 5 wildest audience resctions I've ever seen, so much so that she was rendered speechless a couple of times by how loud the crowd were. Such a great performer (Bolis too).

well-deserved - it was a fantastic show. I was concerned that I would be disappointed after seeing them in a tiny venue last year when they killed it and was wondering if they would manage to bring that energy to a massive festival tent but they really knocked it out of the park. Two of my pals had never heard them before and came away raving about how great it was. stirmonster the whole weekend was brilliant actually :)

also not to objectify anyone in a way but I spotted Bolis in the crowd dancing later on and he really is just an incredibly handsome man, they both just ooze star quality and charisma

They’ve been working hard to get there, they’ve been performing live pretty much every odd day.

The Bolis solo album is ace. Mix of deeper home listening cuts and full on club bangers like this one

Yes - was discussed briefly elsewhere, loving it

Video to Completely Half is great. Strong Wong Kar Wei vibes

Saw Adigery and Pupul live the other night - really excellent. They're great and charismatic performers of course, but what really stood out was how propulsive and thumpy the arrangements were over big speakers in a live setting. The sense of dynamics, especially in the lead-in to what were effectively drops, was really kinetic. The vibe of the way the songs would move in between pop songs and dance tracks reminded me unexpectedly of the last two The Knife albums (not a point of comparison I would have thought of previously).

Yeah, they make the most sense live for sure, not that the recording are bad of course.

Man, really need to catch them at some point. Pretty sure they've played here and I missed it (though that could have been a festival date)

Ned Raggett, Friday, 15 March 2024 14:49 (two months ago) link

saw them at Desert Daze in 2022, if that's what you're thinking of, was a great set, she was amazing live.

I dig it :) Nice description too! His singing reminds me of Andy Oppenheimer.
