Freezepop - Forever


Synth pop.......Yummy !

If you've yet to discover the joy of Freezepop then you are in for a treat !

From the Discogs listing - http://www.discogs.com/artist/Freezepop
'Freezepop is a synthpop band from Boston, Massachusetts founded in 1999. The lineup includes Liz Enthusiam (Jussi Gamache) on vocals, The Other Sean T. Drinkwater on backing vocals, synths, and vocoder, and The Duke of Pannekoenen (Kasson Crooker) on programming. Freezepop's song Science Genius Girl was featured in the PlayStation 2 game Frequency and their song Super-Sprøde was featured in the game's sequel, Amplitude.
Freezepop won Best New Band in 2001 at the American Synthpop Awards and Best US Band in 2002.'

With electronics reminiscent of Speak And Spell era Depeche Mode and a wickedly dry sense of humour, Freezepop are a must for any fan of electronic music.

My personal favourites from this album, released in 2000, are the wonderfully dreamy 'Tennis Boyfriend', a track which lulls you into a false sense of calm before making you want to swing your pants with a quirky chorus section and final track 'Freezepop Forever'.
However, the whole album is great.
It's also worth checking out their videos on You Tube......and there most recent album Futurefuturefutureperfect is just divine !
