TRACK OF THE NIGHT: Audacity Of Huge

Simian Mobile Disco / Audacity Of Huge

Audacity Of Huge works as a neat introduction to Simian Mobile Disco's sophomore album Temporary Pleasure and to be honest, it really does kick ass. Yeasayer's Chris Keating features and provides the track with assured swaggering vocals which take the super-slick lyrics to another level, as he name checks an array of different characters from Mama Cass to Bill Murray. Compared to previous SMD classics such as Hustler and Sleep Deprivation Audacity Of Huge is not an all out electronic banger but with squelchy synths and eclectic vocal samples it subtley reaffirms SMD's ability to create a hit which transcends much further than the constraints of clubs. Overall, Audacity Of Huge is a delightful gear change for SMD and shows that they are more than mere producers...they are in fact GENIUSES.
