There are many electronica bands and DJ's out there. Many of them are good in their genre, whether it be trance,
house, electro and so on. Not many bands can have such a vast spectrum of sound and talent. Cicada is a genre
bending electronic based band from Britain. They have been around since 2002 but released their first LP in 2006.
This band does a very good job at blending the sounds of house, trance, indie dance, and nu disco. The end result
is something that sounds like Abba, Donna Summer, Blondie, and a lot of the bands from the late 70's and early 80's
including bands in post punk, new wave, and new romantic. Along with elements of modern music such as sounds
from trance and house. It's clean sounding and the lead vocalist has a very good voice. IMO it's like a better version
of The Sounds, with less emphasis in rock music, although you will hear some nice and funky bass lines. They also
seem to be influenced by The Cardigans as seen with "Tricks", which sounds like "Lovefool". Anyways great album.
