THE RETURN OF A TRUE POP MAVERICK! AFTER A BLINDING
DEBUT & OZ TOUR, WELCOME BACK POP LEVI!
“A true cult hero” (NME) and probably the only contemporary musician in the world beloved of both JARVIS COCKER and NOEL GALLAGHER, ex-Ladytron bassist Pop was never likely to come back with the same record all over again and ‘Never Never Love’ doesn’t disappoint.
Recorded entirely in Hollywood at QUINCY JONES’ old studio, Westlake, where both ‘Thriller’ & ‘Off The Wall’ were laid down, Mr Levi has returned with an album about the madness of love. From rockers like “Wannamama” and “Oh God”, Pop spreads his wings, relying on a production flare, which makes the record feel fresh and slick as well as charmingly hi-lo-fi.
‘Never Never Love’ shows that while he hasn’t abandoned the dynamics of the rock group he has also been steeping himself in contemporary R&B and electronic pop. The album takes off in all kinds of weird and wonderful directions, from crazed danger pop to wonky dub and many other unexpected turns.
As Pop himself memorably puts it, “it's like if Dylan went electronic”: this is just the latest evolution in Pop’s career. But remember that this man can write songs like few others, no matter what the genre.
