The Soup Dragons - Hotwired (1992)


Después de Lovegod (1990),The Soup Dagons se lanzaron a la conquista del mercado americano(la portada les delata).Hotwired no está tan conseguido como el album anterior pero tiene un puñado de buenos temas como "Divine Thing" o el genial "Getting Down". Así inauguro este blog ...



Según Allmusic.com:
<< Hotwired is where the Soup Dragons reached equilibrium -- the happy medium between the slick breakbeats and guitar-based rock & roll. Throughout most of the album, the songs are among the strongest of the band's career and sonically the album is near perfect; fans of dance alternative will love singles like "Pleasure" and "Divine Thing" (both moderate hits in the U.S.) and rock fans will appreciate the crisp but not sterile instrumentation. There are many great production flourishes -- like the "gospel choir"-like background vocals and fun sound effects -- sprinkled throughout the disc. In fact, "Hotwired" is worth listening to for the chugging guitars on the fabulous "Getting Down" alone. For fans of this genre or fans of Brit-pop or even power pop in general, this is the place to start.>> by Jason Damas
