Hadouken! - Turn The Lights Out
ARUKAHN
Hadouken! are, let's be clear, the most confusing band in the entire country, possibly the world. Having begun their career producing music so calculatedly obnoxious that you felt that they regarded every person horrified by their electro-grime barking as a personal triumph (and let's be clear - that was a lot of people), their second album For The Masses - due next year - is shaping up to broaden their appeal exponentially. Witness, if you will, the video for the new 'Turn The Lights Out', in which James Smith's grindie troops stomp around a house wearing black, rapping in a sort of boyband way with a massive "We've lit the fuse and we're ready to blow! Don't don't care where we are! Don't care where we go!" chorus. It sounds like Pendulum, Limp Bizkit, and JLS, all at the same time. Their press release compares it to Wu-Tang, which is sweet. It is, indubitably, both the stupidest and best thing they've ever done. On this evidence, For The Masses should be hilarious.
