Decidedly less gloomy and more poppy than either of the aforementioned, Love & Rockets' guitar-driven, Neo Psychedelic pop still hovered somewhere between the sunny and shady sides of the street. Songs such as "Kundalini Express," from arguably their best album (<i>Express</i>), roll along in good spirits not unlike the Cure's "In Between Days." Drone anthems such as "Ball of Confusion" sleepwalk through shadowy melodies and a single groove that sacrifice none of pop's three minute, verse/chorus formula. After holing up in various side projects for the last five years, Love & Rockets are back with their contribution to electronica, as they've traded in their drum sets for more experimental (but less memorable) sequenced House beats and various sorts of sampled blip-and-bleep. - Kelly BaumanPost-Punken720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 05:25:45 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6596&rws=%2Flove-rockets%2Fmusic-videos.rss Spawned from the incestuous British Goth/pop scene of the 1980s, Love & Rockets' members spent their formative years cutting their teeth in such notable acts as Bauhaus and Tones on Tail.
