 CUT COPY [UMA]
To use a catch-cry of the judges on those reality shows, ‘Australia, you got it right’. The new album from Melbourne act Cut Copy made it to the top of the pop charts in the first week of its release; a monumental feat for a largely underground dance act. But what makes this recording and this achievement so special is that In Ghost Colours is a totally awesome album and worth this stunning prize.
A good mate described this album as being like a New Order recording, and that is the grandest statement and biggest compliment anyone could make. In Ghost Colours is a sublimely cool amalgamation of sexy dance beats and solid songwriting, the tempting necessity for pop gloss scuffed away with a slightly melancholy vocal style. Cut Copy has put their hand up for the album of 2008. Buy this right now.
