Dry Cleaning – Secret Love (CD)

Dry Cleaningreturn withSecret Love, the groups third studio album, produced byCate Le Bon. Here, the south London four-piece take their place in rocks avant garde, catalysing the Reaganite paranoia of early 80s US punk and hardcore with the dry strut of Keith Richards, stoner rock, dystopian degradation, playful no wave and pastoral fingerpicking, while Florences delivery, meticulously calibrated to her bandmates soundscapes, asserts her in a lineage of spoken-word artists stretching from Laurie Anderson to Life Without Buildings Sue Tompkins. After interviewing various potential producers, they picked Cate an esteemed solo artist who has also made albums for Deerhunter, Devendra Banhart, Wilco and Horsegirl for her unabashed positivity and openness.
