SERENELY BEAUTIFUL AT TIMES AND NOISY AND DISTURBING AT OTHERS; LIKE ALL THE BEST RECORDS SHOULD BE. The Electro-Clash pioneers return with their stunning new album! In pop folklore, bands were allowed three LPs to become themselves, yet the fabled third album is an increasing rarity in this low-attention span era. It comes as a rare treat to find that Liverpool-based boy / girl four-piece Ladytron have reached this mythical milestone with 'Witching Hour,’ their best album yet, and one that fizzes and sparks with the band's own idiosyncratic charms.

'Witching Hour' is an album that reaches further than its predecessors: warm and dense, there is a feeling of susceptible magic wrapped within its thirteen tracks. Ladytron just fulfilled their potential. Prepare to fall in love with them all over again.
