Biography

LADYTRON earned a decade’s worth of acclaim by relentlessly pushing boundaries, carving out new sonic and conceptual space and refusing to abide any formula or trend.

So it’s testimony to their craft to say that Gravity The Seducer, the fifth album from the electro-pop provocateurs, is vintage Ladytron — because, like each of the four preceding albums, it’s not ... Read more in Amazon's Ladytron Store

Editorial Reviews

Is this what we once imagined the future would sound like? On 604 Liverpool-based synth-pop collective Ladytron show all the electronic hallmarks of 1980, only without the "New Dawn of Technology" neurosis. Remember in those days how man feared the totalitarian march of the machine? How we worried that our friends might be electric? That our minds might be toys? That video would kill the radio star? That human labor would be redundant and we'd all be reduced to a Mao-suited existence in some morose metropolis? OK, so 604 does contain a few Marxist nursery rhymes (sung by stern Bulgarian female vocalist Mira Aroyo) but it also contains a version of the theme tune to '70s sit-com "Are You Being Served" (sung sweetly by the kittenish "Bond girl" voice of Helen Marnie). Ladytron's inspired, accessible electro-pop is where latter-day, Tarwater-style Krautrock meets the melodic appeal of the Human League, the Pet Shop Boys and Abba, with just a little bit of the sociosexual commentary of Black Box Recorder thrown in for good measure. Gary Numan was never as much fun as this. --Kevin Maidment

Product Description

Ladytron successfully fuses together the cold darkness of computer rock with lingering catchy hooks found only in greatpop songs. Like Human League and Kraftwerk, throw in a Giorgio Moroder bassline aimed at the dancefloor, and top it offwith the rhythmic

5.0 out of 5 stars to dance to May 3, 2004
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
ladytron provokes disinterested dancing: you know, the kind where you stand in the darker corner of the club, against the wall, and slightly move your upper body back and forth while sneering at everyone else because you're so high on coke.

If your new just figuring out what electroclash is or if you are a fan of the genre Ladytron's 604 is a great album packed with great beats catchy songs and interesting harmonies. With 80's instruments and modern production techniques the band is able to sound retro and futuristic at the same time. Overall the sound is fun although many of the tracks have a bit of a goth sentiment to them using the darker Eastern European vocals of Mira and the softer tones of Helaine. The band actually formed in a peculiar way when the two guys in the band met Mira in Bulgaria while DJing and then Helaine joined as they were recording their first singe "He took her to a Movie".

This track is actually on this album twice and while it does have quite an effect it is a rather simple song that is not nearly as developed ad many of the other tracks. This album is a certain must have is you are a fan of `80s music or if you want something that is truly cool. This album will quickly get under your skin and it will certainly become a favorite.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the most consistently inventive recording I've.... September 10, 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
heard since Pulp's "Different Class." In Ladytron, I have found what for me is the epitome of electonic "pop" music. I first heard Ladytron's single "Playgirl" and was hooked from the first beat. I was afraid that the CD would be average with Playgirl being the only standout "single." I was very excited to hear that almost all of these songs, including the instrumental Mu-Tron, could stand as singles on their own merit. It's true that some of this sounds like earlier synth-pop recordings, but Ladytron takes things in a more fully developed direction beyond mere pop. Every single song sounds well thought out and there is no filler song here. Unlike an earlier commenter here wrote, I believe "Commodore Rock" echoes early Heaven 17. "He took her to a Movie" like Visage and "Discotraxx" like Saint Etienne.

It's been in my car's CD player since I got it. While many other CDs have come and gone this one will probably occupy slot #6 until the next Ladytron recording comes out, which I hope is very soon.
