Exclusive MP3: Dragonette "Big Sunglasses"
September 22, 2009
Dragonette's new album "Fixin' To Thrill" is one of my favorite records of the year. It's major.
I have been listening to an advance of the album nearly non-stop this weekend and totally love every single second of it. From the sleek keyboard-driven "Liar" to the sugary pop of "We Rule Of The World," and from the '80s retro vibe on "Pick Up The Phone" to Martina's vocal perfection on the ballad "You're A Disaster."
This record is filled with catchy melodies, honest sentiment and a happy balance between spunky, upbeat tracks and heartfelt balladry. This is the stuff pop gems are made of.
To celebrate the upcoming release of the record, the band was happy to let me give one track away. Exclusively for readers of ArjanWrites.com. Check out a totally guilt-free download of "Big Sunglasses," a buzzing electro-edged pop track about life's lavish luxuries. Could it get any more '80s? Let's indulge..
Make sure to get your copy of Dragonette's new LP "Fixin' To Thrill" in the next few weeks. It will be available in Canada on September 29, Australia on Ocober 3 and in the rest of the world digitally on October 6 and physically October 20.
