Drum Of Glass – Monomen
Ah, the 80’s. A terrible decade in so many ways, and even musically a little lacking, but you simply cannot deny the power of a good synth-rhythm, a lesson that the Norwegian band Monomen appears to have learned well. A little New Order here, some Eurythmics there – you get the idea. Or better yet, imagine Interpol if they weren’t quite so depressed and if you were playing a 33 at 45 speed.
There’s nothing complicated going on here, but really that’s what makes it so good.
