Gabriella Cilmi - Superhot


"I want the stars to collide"

Look out for a full track-by-track review of this album soon, since it was such a pleasant surprise. Australian singer/songwriter Gabriella Cilmi used to be a folksy/soul type singer and had a sizable hit around the world a few years ago with Sweet About Me. Now she's totally reinvented herself as an electro pop goddess and made the album that Kylie Minogue should have come back with. The amazing single, On A Mission, which launched the album campaign, was the first indication that we were in for something special. Luckily, the album is more of the same--addictive melodies over fresh, exciting pop production. Superhot is one of the instant standouts. From the frenetic spoke/sung verses to the dramatic (almost operatic) bridge to the processed drums at the end of the chorus, this is a flawless summertime pop song with energy to spare. The album's out on the 22nd (though unfortunately not in the US).
