Handsome Furs – Sound Kapital

- by Thomas

When Dan Boeckner isn’t writing songs for indie darlings Wolf Parade, he’s making music with his wife Alexei Perry for side-project Handsome Furs. “Sound Kapital” is already the couple’s third album and once again we are treated to a bunch of electropop tunes.

Unfortunately the beats and synth sounds on here don’t sound all that different from the soundtrack to one of the computer games I used to play in the early nineties and as cute as it sounded then, it’s just plain boring now. And not even the naked lady on the cover can redeem that fact.
Score: 4 out of 10
