Little Boots

WARNING: POP TRASH


Little Boots's Hands
is an album I've been anticipating since I heard her "Meddle" and "Stuck on Repeat" in late 2008. The first half of the album is stronger. It's your basic British dance-electronica by a hot chick, but with nerd-kitsch braininess.

1. New In Town +
2. Earthquake *
3. Stuck On Repeat +
4. Click *
5. Remedy *
6. Meddle +
7. Ghosts *
8. Mathematics +
9. Symmetry
10. Tune Into My Heart
11. Hearts Collide
12. No Brakes

From last.fm:

Holy crap this woman is my age. What am I doing with my life?
