the wait is over

finally electrico's 2nd album was released on the 22nd of june 2006! i had waited more than half a year to lay my grubby hands on the album. it was supposed to be out last oct or nov but got delayed. i could only get it on the 23rd thou cos sembawang hadn't gotten the stock in by the time i knocked off work on thurs afternoon.

the verdict: totally worth the wait! actually it was worth much more than that. they could have charged 50 bucks for it and i would have still bought it, the queue could have been longer than during the freakin hello kitty craze and i would have queued, the weather could have... ah you get the picture.

there are 12 tracks on the album. the first single being Love in New Wave. it's a nice number and i think dave is actually writing about his band members. the first line goes "i never get to see your face / i only get to hear your drums instead", i reckon he was referring to william. then the third verse/chrous goes "your synthesizers to the bone / they lift my off my legs of stone", this one should be about amanda. i'm not too sure about the person he talks about bringing him into the pages of a magazine but i got a strong gut feeling he's referring to leonard soosay.

other tracks i love are Hip City, Only Where I'm Going, Stay Away, Walk... basically almost the whole album la. they're on heavy rotation on my mediasource playlist now, hopefully they'll will be equally welcomed on our local airwaves soon. Hip City is an up-and-coming track, i think electrico should release it as their second single for the album. just my two cents' worth..
