I've been waiting for this single for a long time, ever since POBPAH's Kurt Feldman announced that the successor to his side project, the now defunct Depreciation Guild, would be the Ice Choir, of which this single is the debut. The Ice Choir is a recreation of synth heavy 80s pop, listening to the A-side you really do feel like you have discovered a lost classic from 1987 with a throbbing electronic beat. Its totally wonderful, maybe my song of the year.
The B-side, which is named after the band, is more understated but is more 80s pop inspired goodness. I've been listening to a lot of neo-synth pop lately, some of it is great, some of it is... a bit rubbish to be honest, but this (and Class Actress) is just out of this world.
