Spray are a band coming from England (land that is showing good electro acts again after years of shoe gazers; as NME called the guitar pop bands in early and mid nineties) and LIVING IN NEON is their second album. The first one has been released in 1998 for Stone The Kubist and was titled "On Air, Tonight". The band had also a couple of songs played various times by John Peel, the famous BBC's dj (for sure you own at least one record of a John Peel Session of one of your favorite bands). Formed by Jenny McLaren (on vocals) and Ricardo Autobahn (all the rest) Spray are the perfect example of modern synthpop band: powerful, melodic and someway danceable. Their tracks are always pumping and energetic (the album contains few ballads, if I can call them this way) and from the lyrics of "I'm Gothic" I may say that they have got also a good sense of humor, here's the song's refrain: "I am gothic / I am pale / I am scary / I'm insane / I'm a loner / I am cold / I feel special when people don't phone". "Child Of The 80s", "Brainiac", "I'm Gothic", "I Kill With My Car" are for sure songs that can catch the attention of different kinds of audience. As bonus you can also find remixed versions of "Child Of The 80s", "I'm Gothic" (check the "Freestone" version which is gothic indeed with the bass guitar that seems playing a Joy Division's song) and "Spaced". Check their mp3 at their website and wait for their new MCD which will include tracks from their "I Am Gothic" remix contest.
