So who wouldn’t look at that cover and mutter “Echo and the Bunnymen” under their breath? Well cast that notion aside, The Thought Criminals are a hard-edged electronica outfit formed in South London in ’04. Their debut album features dance beats that bleed post-modern club hit-making with electro punk influences and humor not heard since Lords of Acid. While they share about negative infinity with the aforementioned Bunnymen, they certainly have ‘80’s influences pumping through their veins and arteries. Nice. Think somewhere between straight up inferno electro and Sister Machine Gun. Yeah I know.
