  1. 8.0 |   NME

    A record that reveals more about itself with every listen. Not all of it's pretty. In fact, none of it is. Psych just went over to the dark side

  2. 8.0 |   Spin

    The quirkiness of the British group's name pays homage to Metal Mk I artists like Alice Cooper and BÖC, but the music on their third album, Mind Control, shows a broader vocabulary of anachronism

  3. 8.0 |   Uncut

    An accomplished, evilly wrought set piece. Print edition only

  4. 7.5 |   Mojo

    Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats remain just as intriguing as ever, wearing their influences on their highly-stylised sleeves with as much campy posturing as it takes without ever falling into the trap of derivative retro-clichés. Print edition only

  5. 6.8 |   Pitchfork

    Control almost shows real signs of vitality in a necrophillic genre

In an age when production is deliberately designed not to disturb listeners, Paradises may prove popular The Arts Desk

Ladytron  Paradises

The cover artwork to Ladytron’s latest record Paradises adopts mind trickery by showing two hands touching through a triangle shape that looks both like a reflective mirror and a translucent window. Befitting artwork to hint at the content inside the triad’s album, which often takes the listener to places that are up to one’s own imagination and interpretation God Is In The TV

Ladytron head for the disco and relive the fun of 90s clubland The Skinny
