With a powerful, booming bass, the song 'Unpunctuated' from 'Like What' kicks in and immediately creates the feeling that a storm of 80s EBM could break loose at any moment. The crisp drums add to the pressure. But as the vocals kick in, the mood transforms into a shallower synth-pop song with plenty of charm. It's an interesting twist presented right at the beginning of the song. Although the band is from the US, the vocals give a certain French-inspired touch.
The influences of the sound are none other than Depeche Mode, New Order and Fad Gadget. These are high standards, but actually the sound of 'Like What' comes pretty close to them. The genre is well hit and the overall mood fits as well. All in all, 'Unpunctuated' is a successful achievement!

Just finished work, you’re on your way home
