This changed the way I perceived the idea of an album. The idea of a record as a whole orange is nice but normally tracks have orders of preference and can stand alone - an album is logically construed by the sum of it's parts. 'Afraid to Dance' instead employs a sonic ethic in that everything binds together, it's all about texture here. Embraced in its electronica are the ideas of Godspeed, Sigur Ros and Spiritualized. These Italians do beats and melodies to a stunning degree on their second album. Soak it up.
