Genre: New Wave
4.25 out of 5

I’ve struggled with Tuxedomoon this entire project but this time I feel differently. With their toes firmly in early 80s New Wave, coupled with rhythmic obsessions that didn’t really work before, they present their brand of post-modern eclectica in a challenging but more compelling way than I’ve heard before. 
This is a lovely record full of weirdness and I loved it. 
Finally!
