Sensor - Naked (2009)
(item no.: 792)
Label: Intuition
Released: 2009
Sensor isn’t exactly the kind of band I expected on Intuition Records. Well, it seems that the label wanted to open their horizon by fishing in the wide pop pool. Sensor is a Russian band that we commonly would define as pop. The content is much more diversified reflecting a wider bunch of influences.
This debut-cd brings different styles together that finally resulted in a kind of pop approach. The stones of this construction have been built by elements, mainly rock, new wave and techno music. The pop style is quite indie-like. I’m especially referring to the gorgeous “Falling Insane”-song. This song evolved towards a wild techno part reminding me of Praga Kahn. The electro-techno sounds are brilliant while the guitar parts lifting the song are irresistible. A few other songs like “Let Me Hold On To This Moment” and “Off-White Trash” are less techno-inspired, but keep on the fascination proving that indie music can be cool as well.
Singer Ilya Pavlov sounds closer to an experienced English singer than a Russian artist, and is for sure partly responsible for the quality of this band as well. In times where the success of electro-pop music is far behind us, a band like Sensor can maybe reactivate this flame!
