I just discovered this album after downaloding the top 100
albums of 2004 (according to pitchfork) well downaloding the
ones I didn't have... anyway i digress, I absolutley fucking
love this album, it is beautiful the opening intro track and
the following song are FAN 'FUCKIN TASTIC. its the ultimate
in cheesy pop dance, it's everything i wish my music was!

M83 - Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts, Labels / Gooom

France’s electronic duo M83 return with their second
album, their first to be given a more overtly international
push. Good timing, for its an adequately analogue collection
of electronic pop songs mounted on a bed of fuzzy guitars
and computerised vocals – hitting the zeitgeist with
considerable aplomb. The tracks often contain a warm, almost
romantic undercurrent, something which isnt often associated
with music of this kind, and the soundscapeish scope of the
composition, rather than the execution, hints at a deep love
for My Bloody Valentine and their pioneering execution of
electronic pioneering via acoustic means. Surprisingly
moving.

it's a little too overwrought for me, definitely, but the
followup turned up the histrionics even higher. "run into
flowers" is the highlight for me.

the highlight of their career, i think, is when the song
from the third album about a deadly car crash was used in a
commercial selling a car.

I've only heard this album, i had absolutley no idea who
they were. I just love the high charged cheesy sentimental
sound to it, its like an electronic version of the
microphones! i really did enjoy this album unrecorded being
my fav at the mo. I'm gonna grab thie rother albums!

i prefer his most recent album (after dropping the other
guy) since it's the most rockin', though it has one or two
completely awful tracks.

m83 is one of my favourites as well. love the track 0078h
from that album.

'before the dawn heals' us is also real good. better as a
whole then dead cities imo.

Grade A fromage. Never got a chance to get into BTDHU but I
loved Dead Cities. I thought it was cool to dislike them
now, though.
