Album of the week: "Hot Fuss"
The Factor would like to thank internet entity "Qua" for recommending this CD!
Now I am addicted to it! This Cd can be described as a "best of the 80s" with contemporary accents. Tracks #1 and #10 sound like early Duran Duran. Plenty of hints of The Smiths, Cure, etc, even the Strokes, while one song starts in a very Beatlesque manner. There's also a gender confusion song and a jock stalking song - among others :-). Oh the band name is "The Killers", not to be confused with "The Kills", or "Killers".
