“Synth/Electropop with bite and punch”
Riding the new wave: NYC synthpop duo The Mystic Underground turn up the tempo and ferocity on We Could Be Fugitives, a clarion call to "take your lover by the hand and run" from monotony — already a live staple and dance floor weapon. Song for a Gorgeous Blonde delivers the heavily orchestrated Avlägsna förmögenheter, peering into distant fortunes with equal hopefulness and dread. Replaced By Robots bring guitar-driven rock with post-punk energy and electronic twists that feel "simultaneously familiar, futuristic, and slightly wrong." Montreal's Glass Dolls offer bedroom pop-inflected post-punk meditations on love, loss, and grief on Old Friend.
