TRACK OF THE NIGHT: Orally Fixated



Róisín Murphy / Orally Fixated

The Murphmeister is back and better than ever. She may be heavily pregnant but Róisín is still bashing out some absolutely stellar pop songs which frankly put a lot of artists to shame. Orally Fixated sounds like all the best bits from Overpowered and Ruby Blue wrapped into one. Both highly experimental and shining with pop flair, it is quite possibly Róisín's most innovative work to date. From its lyrical amazingness, which is not only genius but downright suggestive, to its mind-bogglingly manic rush of hyperactive synths, grinding guitar samples and a throbbing bassline, Orally Fixated somehow makes perfect sense. In her thrilling journey through music Róisín has ended up in a gritty, dark and wonderful territory of pop and man does it sound good.
