...are gonna do a concert where I live. A buddy are trying to get me to join him, but the only electronic music he listens to is semi-gay electro-pop. Is Ladytron any good? Good album, track to start with? Anyone seen them live?

I have to admit, i can get down to "destroy everything you touch" but after a quick skip through the rest of that album, I can say I would definitely be really embarrassed to listen to them in a public space

they're my favourite semi-gay electro-pop group. start with 604, one of my all-time favourite albums. after that they started moving towards darker songs and shoegazing. the song 'destroy everything you touch' is a good indication of their new style. their live shows used to be frigid, clinical performances like sprockets taken seriously. i don't know what they do now.
but i'm jealous. i hope you enjoy the show.

yes! go see ladytron now!! (well not now, when you can)
id say start out with their first album 604, but also check out their essential single seventeen (which, live is awesome).
i saw about 2 minutes of them at coachella two years ago and was immediately wishing i had seen more. so many guitars in their show, it really rocks hard.

They're outstanding, don't miss out on this. Their latest album is a bit more rock/shoegaze oriented than the predecessors, and just as good.

Had you listened to Efterklang at all before that concert?
Sclah: They are playing on Pstereofestivalen in Trondheim. Aug 24-25. Will U B there?

Wish I could, but that's just a few days before my thesis hand-in.
And Efterklang really is boring

Ladytron isn't bad actually.
I was going to see them at a show here a few months ago, but I mainly wanted to see Cansei de Ser Sexy (they were playing with them).
Of course, my friend that was going to be my transportation decided to not go at the last second. Fuckin cunt.

a few good tracks here and there, perhaps more exciting in live situation. "he took her to a movie" might be my favourite track

I don't think Numbasaurus listens to very much electronica. She's mainly here because she likes hanging around snobbish virgins. (not a jab at you)
