Predominates, yes, the fresh and fun synth pop, but with touches of other things depending on the track where you are. Produced (among others) by Greg Kurstin, her hand is quite noticeable, because there are songs that remind you Lily Allen ( ‘Girls’), to Kylie Minogue ( ‘Shampain’, ‘Hollywood’) and others that put you to the head until you can not stop repeating ‘Uh, uhhh! “(” Mowgli’s Road’).

However, neither the disks supposedly funny one pound of Baladitas piano ( ‘Obsessions’), something closer to this group yet bands like Dragonette, with those who also bear a certain resemblance. Both in style and eclecticism in musical compositions, vocals and themes (the luxury, the guys who let you run, the one-night stands, guilt …). Of course, so that the disc you like, you may first have to overcome the laziness of the voice of Diamandis, who is not-not nearly-recommended for all audiences.

Rating : 6 / 10
The best:

Almost all have their grace, but we are left with ‘Mowgli’s Road’, ‘Hollywood’ and ‘Shampain’

You’ll like if you like:

Florence & the Machine, Lily Allen, Kylie Minogue, Dragonette, backfire on a dance floor.
