La Roux - In For The KillLa Roux – In For The Kill

If you are off to see Lily Allen live this month then you will be in for a double treat not only will you get to see the beautiful and talented Lily Allen you will also get to see La Roux a red head solo artist who drenches her music with electronic synths and catchy beats.

‘In For The Kill’ is the new single from La Roux, and straight away you can tell that they want to go back to the 80’s as the single has a big retro sound about it mixed with the whole nu-rave scene, the song has enough keyboard sounds, synths and beats to keep the biggest of dance and electronic fans happy whilst vocally you will be taken in straight away as Elly has a beautiful set of vocals that works extremely well over all the electronics on offer.

The b-side to the single is an instrumental version of the song, which obviously sounds exactly the same as the main version of the single just minus the vocals and even that on its own provides a good listen.

The first time you listen to the single you may think it’s quite odd, I surly did but after just a couple more listens I actually love it and can’t get enough of it, it’s a proper upbeat chirpy song and I can see La Roux on her way for big things.

4/5
