Montreal's La Securite have New Wave pioneers Marth & The Muffins in their veins and DNA. Their jobs are very boring, they are office clerks.
On debut album Stay Safe, they set the controls to the heart of... 1980. This is an utterly retro album, What you get here is that jerky electro impulse of the Muffins first and foremost but also Hazel O'Connot, Visage, Landscape, DEVO, Bowie's Scary Monster, Numan, The Passions and so and so forth.
La Securite do this all impeccably. The record is urgent, robotic and in its quiet, (well actually, very loud), way) it's fab, triff and enormous fun. I loved it. Iy reminds me of first time round whicgh I never mind..
