Release Notes:
So they've travelled far and wide have The
Raveonettes, the boy/girl duo who made their sleazy
name with the leatherclad clampop of the 'Chain
Gang Of Love' and 'Pretty In Black' albums. Third
longplayer 'Lust Lust Lust' finds them in a
reflective mood, but the degree of sonic mischief
remains undiminished - stunned opener 'Aly, Walk
With Me' sets the scene by imagining The Velvet
Underground rewriting the theme for 'A Fistful Of
Dollars', whereafter things start getting really
quite strange. Legend has it that these twelve odes
to sex, drugs, rock and indeed roll have been
carved from a mountain of melodies 100 songs high.
Whatever the figures 'Lust Lust Lust' is the result
of a band looking both deep inside themselves and
far outside their environment for inspiration.
Freed from the shackles of their Sony major label
deal the dynamic duo have moved on from the greasy
rider sound of their first albums and now exist in
a world of deadpan eulogies and dead good
troublegum-laced pop songs. They still know their
history do The Raveonettes - the breezy
twang-tastic thrill of the '50s still rings true,
but they have their black gaze set on the modern
world, too. Indeed, this combination of retropop
and lush noise finds its perfect synthesis in 'I
Want The Candy', which revisits 1988 by merging The
Primitives' 'Crash' with the Marychain's
malevolence, and the quite frankly brilliant
lead-off single 'Blush'. It's a ball of fun being
bounced off a wall of sound, for sure. '
