Three years after the release of the singles "Electric woman" and "Protected" (both reviewed here and both included into this album), Flux are back with their first full length album titled SAFE+SOUND released by Na-no Tuanto (the band's own label) and Electric Fantastic Sound (a Sweden label that decided to go for digital only releases). The band formed by Asta (vocals) and two ex Neuroactive members (Vesa Rainne and Ville Brusi left the band in 1997, before joining the A Different Drum roster) present a great electro pop album that sounds minimal but functional. The ten tracks of SAFE+SOUND span from synthpop to sensual electro passing through old e.m.b. influences with easiness and taste. The album sounds strong and catchy and after two spins it will climb suddenly your personal toplist. If you love the old Client stuff, try this album and you won't regret it! If you are looking for it into the stores and you don't find it go to Electric Fantastic Sound (www.electricfantasticsound.com) and purchase it on digital format from Klicktrack, then you write your purchasing code to them and they'll send a physical copy (a normal pressed CD which contains also the video for "Protected") for free worldwide. Check some tracks and the video on the band's myspace page.
