MARINA & THE DIAMONDS

Music | Johnny | June 26, 2009

We’ve got obssessions. we ALL do.

We here are absolutely smitten and obssessed with Marina & The Diamonds. Having kept it secretly in our playlists for months, its time we unleash the beast of quality music on you all once again.

They aren’t exactly big secret in the music world and you must have heard “I Am Not A Robot“, including the remix by The Shoes recently.

They have twisted the age old formula for melodic pop and are so much more than that. We can put the blame on lead singer Marina this time, with her hauntingly beautiful voice captivating you at first listen and potentially causing goosebumps.

We have heard extremely high quality pop the past few years from Little Boots to Lenka & La Roux so we can safely say if things go as planned, Marina & The Diamonds will roll off your tongues as easily sooner rather than later.

Here’s a wonderful quote from Marina herself:

“Love it that record labels are so obsessed with an act having 12 ‘POTENTIAL NO.1 SINGLES’ on an album that they actually forget that there needs to be a tiny bit of soul in the music in order for ‘the dumb masses’ to swallow it.

NEWS FLASH: It is not 1985 and people no longer buy shit cds.”

Take it from us, with Marina & The Diamonds around, there really isn’t a need to worry about shit cds.
