Despite its very troubled gestation, which saw the former duo become just a solo act, La Roux‘s second album ‘Trouble In Paradise’ has been greeted by critics as one of the summer’s pop triumphs. Standout track ‘Sexotheque’ tops the new edition of our loop.
SOPHIE repeats as the highest debut of the week with his side project QT, next to the latest offerings by Real Estate; Lauryn Hill; Deafheaven; Hookworms and Spanish new wave revivalists Juanita Y Los Feos.
