Strong Look- Spector

We meet at a crossroads somewhere between New Order and the Stranger Things soundtrack.

Space-age synth and  Macpherson’s macabre vocals may be the weirdest  type of love songs you can get, but somehow it just works together.

‘What good are arms if I can’t hold you’, is the age old question Spector ask, reminiscent of Percy Bysshe Shelley’s poem, ‘Love’s Philosophy.’ Let’s forget that though, we’re not in the classroom. This is that awkward school dance that every mid-80s American movie seems to feature.

What prevails is that this is a Spector song, no matter how much they stray from their expected miserable, joyless sound, you can still hear them.  With its familiar guitar and unmistakable vocals, they never miss.

But hey, What good are ears if you don’t listen to Strong Look?
