Eine typische Situation: "Paris Is Burning" läuft im Radio und man denkt "Ach ja, kenne ich, das ist von..."

Ja, von wem eigentlich? Und von wann? Neulich beharrte ein in Sachen Musik durchaus bewanderter Freund darauf, dass dieser Ohrwurm dem Ende der 80er zuzuordnen sei. "Nein, das ist Ladyhawke, ihr Album wurde Ende 2008 veröffentlicht". Ach so, meinte mein Bekannter, eine Cover-Version. "Äh... nein, das Original".

Ja, das erste Album von Ladyhawke klingt tatsächlich, als wäre es dem Ende der 80er entsprungen. Und die Neuseeländerin Phillipa Brown hat hier ein wirklich erstaunliches Erstlingswerk abgeliefert, dass es zwischen 2008 und 2009 auf immerhin fünf Single-Auskopplungen - Back of the Van, Paris Is Burning, Dusk Till Dawn, My Delirium und Magic - brachte. Doch auch die übrigen sieben Songs brauchen sich nicht zu verstecken. Leider blieb Ladyhawke hierzulande ziemlich unbeachtet - zu Unrecht! Also unbedingt reinhören!

LADYHAWKE VINYL LP

2009年11月20日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

BEING ONE OF WHAT APPEARS TO BE MANY PEOPLE MAKING THE SWITCH BACK TO VINYL, I WAS AGAIN HAPPY TO FIND A NEW RELEASE AVAILABLE ON VINYL LP. THANK YOU AMAZON FOR BEING A BIG PART OF VINYL'S RESURGENCE AND AVAILABILITY. NOW I MUST SAY, THE FIRST ALBUM ARRIVED THROWN IN A BOX, WITH A FEW "AIR BAGS" TOSSD ON TOP. THE BOX WAS QUITE DENTED ON THE SIDE, AND THE ALBUM/LP INSIDE HAD SEVERAL CREASES AND BENDS. I THEREFORE SUSPECT THAT ALTHOUGH THE OUTSIDE BOX HAD BEEN DENTED, THE ALBUM ITSELF HAD TO BE PACKED WITH SOME DEFECTS AS WELL BEFORE EVER BEING SHIPPED. OF COURSE, RETURNING IT FOR A REPLACEMENT WAS A BREEZE AND WITH AMAZON IT'S SUPER FAST AND VERY EASY. BEING ABLE TO DO IT ALL ON LINE, EVEN PRINTING OUT THE RETURN SLIP/RMA AND PRINTING A BOX LABEL, PLUS THE FACT THAT AMAZON WILL SHIP A REPLACEMENT IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE DAMAGED ITEM IS RETURNED, IT IS THIS KIND OF CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT KEEPS ME COMING BACK TO AMAZON. THE REPLACEMENT ALBUM WAS MORE SECURELY PACKAGED ON A CARDBOAD BACK BOARD, AND ALTHOUGH THE REPLACEMENT VINYL LP IS QUITE WARPED, THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM DUE TO AMAZON BUT HAPPENS FROM TIME TO TIME WITH VINYL ALBUMS. IT DOES NOT AFFECT PLAYBACK (WARPED VINYL ALBUMS/LPS MAY BE A PROBLEM ON TODAY'S CHEAP USB TURNTABLES BUT NOT ON A HIGH END TURNTABLE, THEY PLAY FINE). I DIDN'T WANT TO RETURN IT FOR A SECOND TIME, AND AS THE OUTER ALBUM JACKET IS PERFECT, THE WARPING PART, AGAIN, IS NOT AN ISSUE ON MY TECHNICS TURNTABLE. AGAIN, THANK YOU AMAZON FOR STOCKING VINYL LP'S AND THANK YOU FOR HAVING SUCH A EASY AND FAST RETURN SYSTEM. I'LL KEEP SHOPPING HERE BECAUSE OF THAT. THIS IS ONE EXAMPLE THAT PROVES THAT GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE LIKE THIS IS SOMETHING NOT TO UNDERVALUE AND OTHER RETAILERS, BOTH ON AND OFF LINE COULD TAKE A LESSON FROM AMAZON ON JUST WHAT OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE IS ALL ABOUT.

Ladyhawke for me is just what the music scene needs to give that entiely unique level of brilliance that she has taken in her electronica sound to recreate that distinctive sound of the 70/80's.
this is from 2008 and fortunately i have purchased this album recently to enjoy the sheer brilliance of this album to which everyone must own.
it is completely different and sheer beautiful to listen too, both exciting and touching while with it's raw edge makes it one of the greatest debut albums i have heard this year.
at this price it makes this album a must have item for fans of genuinely epic music.

others recommended-
The Fame-lady Gaga
Lungs-Florence & The machine
&
La Roux debut album

Ladyhawke has the power of the aforementioned aritists with this one album, it is brilliant!!
10/10

Just when you thought all the good music had been written

Okay, I admit, hearing "My Delirium" when I was playing DiRT 2 on my PC is what brought me here. It's been a long while since I heard a contemporary "pop" song that sounded so raw, so fun, so intense. And sure, buying a whole CD based on what you hear from only one of its tracks -- and from an artist you're not familiar with, mind you -- is a gamble. But I won, because I love this album. The best way I could describe this music is that it's some sort of mixture of '80s, '90s, and 21st century indie rock. The whole thing is a blast to listen to, with nicely balanced and memorable tunes that feature inventive melodies and interesting sounds. If you're looking for something fresh that also reminds you of something from your past that you can't quite put your finger on, pick up this disc. You'll be pleasantly surprised. And that voice ... oh my gosh, that luscious, silky voice. I hope there is more to come in the future.
