Rating: 70
Genre: Alternative Dance
I don't know if it's proper to call this a debut, since it's more of a side project for Joe Goddard of Hot Chip and producer Raf Rundell. The critics generally loved this album, though it seems that club music and electronica routinely get over-rated. Don't get me wrong, there are some great tracks here, with just a couple fillers that lower the rating. OIt is definitely worth checking out.The influences are all over the place: London Club, Caribbean, Techno, 80s, even some garage rock. My favorite song is the Motown influenced Get Together. The bass heavy title track, Be Strong is also excellent.
