Modular’s newest wunder-kids, Plug-In City, bring us something, uhh, new… ‘Blank Photo’. I guess this is what Robert Palmer would sound like if they’d cryogenically frozen him, brought him into the 21st century and set him to work writing New Wave tunes. Just a lot blander. There’s a air of Joy Division we don’t care-edness and that ostenisbly cool exterior bands like Van She and The Lost Valentinos were perfecting in 2006. This sounds like Plug-In City missed the boat. They need to bring the rave synths back, pronto, and drop the ‘Old Man Sam’ bass.
