8.10.12 - New Music - Dragonette
The world is now aware of Dragonette thanks to Martin Solveig and his hit “Hello” a year or two ago. While the song is wonderful, it only partly represents what Dragonette does. Or, at least what they are doing now.
The Canadian band is releasing their third album ‘Bodyparts’ soon, and that means new singles! I missed writing about lead single “Let It Go”, but I won’t miss this song! Second single “Live In This City” is, simply put, a great Dragonette track and that’s kind of all there is to it. Starting with a Ting Tings-esque guitar, the song sounds like it will be a pop rock/punk affair. It isn’t until the end that you realize they have snuck electronic elements in there, and the song has taken on a life of its own. I have always liked Dragonette, but they’ve never been my absolute favorite. After “Live In This City” they are moving up on my list (I don’t actually have a list). I’m sure ‘Bodyparts’ will be their best and most successful album yet. |
