Given the underground acclaim heaped on Marie Davidson s previous albums - ultra-stylish affairs that blend elements of minimal wave, dark Italo-disco, off-kilter electro and moody ambient - it s little surprise to see her popping up on Minimal Wave offshoot Cititrax. The album s nine tracks are largely sharp, rough and fuzzy, with sparse-but-dense drum machines rhythms underpinning bouncy, delay-laden synth lines, thrusting electronics and Davidson s sleazy, spoken word vocals. It s an attractive combination that guarantees thrills throughout, from the almost claustrophobic throb of -Denial-, to the mutant electrofunk bounce of -Good Vibes-.
