These New Puritans - Hidden (2010)


These New Puritans fall somewhere between 1980s post-punk and the sort of dance pop you’ll hear if you live anywhere near a nightclub. The former can be heard in the guitars which are often amelodic and noisy, appearing at various points in the song to lend a gritty feel to the music. The dance aspect is helped by the synths and vocals; it doesn’t really help the music, as the vocals tend to be rather obnoxious and the synthesizers don’t really add much color or texture. The drums often play rather monotonous beats as well, so this comes across as more dance than post-punk. This is a decent album, and if you like the hybrid style they’re going for you may find this interesting.
