New York quartet Murder Mystery started out as a lo-fi indie band in thrall to The Velvet Underground, they're named after a VU track, Pavement and Sleater Kinney. Following the viral success of the retro electro twee cross over 'Lover Astronaut' they've gone through a conversion to rival that of St Paul. With the enthusiasm of the recent convert they're producing shiny, summery electro pop like it's going out of fashion. The latest results of their efforts are light and easy on the ear. 'Change My Mind' sounds like the early jaunty, fresh faced incarnation of Depeche Mode covering the Cure. On I Am If You Are they sound like they've picked Stereolab's pocket and sold the proceeds to the Cardigans.
Murder Mystery's new songs may not have the charm and substance of their earlier stuff but they're bright and breezy and a perfect companion for a hot summers day.
