Details:
The Electric Era's sophomore album 'A Little Less Gravity', released March 2008, delivers more of the trademark edgy pop that made their 2005 debut a highly original listen. If anything, the eclectic variety of 80's Post-Punk influences is even more realised on this album. Nonetheless, their music firmly defies pidgeon-holing: Slow, fast, loud, quiet, abrasive and smooth, it all sits nicely in their unique musical melange.

The Electric Era deliver an original alternative, indie pop recipe: dashes of laid back New Zealand kumara mash garnished with precision Germanic cucumber, and a sprinkling of British post-punk pickles.

Hints of 80's Dunedin ginger pop a la The Chills and The Clean are blended with a few harder rock/new wave riffs and atmospheric mayonnaise synth dressing reminiscent of The Cure and Joy Division.

Enjoy your meal. This recipe and a complete list of sonic ingredients can be found on their website.
