2010, 4AD
VINYL FORMAT. First single from the 2010 album Penny Sparkle; features the album version and "Love or Prison (Kastellet Mix)" on the flip. ". . .it's definitely synth-driven, which immediately makes you wonder how sparingly guitars will be used [on Penny Sparkle] compared to the band's excellent 2007 release, 23. The electronic beats feel organic, but I think that's mostly due in part to Kazu Makino's hauntingly beautiful vocals that seem to always be wonderfully enveloped in whatever sounds that surround it. And I just love that bass line that comes in at 0:49 - I'm not even quite sure how to describe it, but it pushes the track over from this sort of dark and melancholy, to something that contains sex appeal in a way. Yes, this track is sexy." - TheYellowStereo.com
