La Roux - Bulletproof

Bulletproof by La Roux

4...according to our on Thu 18 Jun, 2009.

That last La Roux single got its hooks well and truly into me after about a few listens. I'm the official office La Roux fan now. Here's Bulletproof, her 2nd single lined up to promote her forthcoming Self titled album. Woo. I've heard it a couple of times now and it's not as catchy as the last single but it's still a well good pop song. I'm reminded of early Depeche Mode and Vince Clarke but with a lass singing. I guess sit's not a million miles away from Yazoo. It's all very 80's though the 2 remixes on the single do their best to make things sound more modern with A wobbly DJ Zinc mix and a Tepr mix which I can live without.

La Roux is accessible as she is irresistible' NME

'La Roux will be huge' MIXMAG

Straight off the back of her monster hit single ‘In For The Kill’ La Roux gets set to launch herself further into the pop stratosphere with the irresistible ‘Bulletproof’. With the mixture of heart-stopping techno disco production, heart-tugging lyrics and her 80s sci-fi Blitz Kid style screaming future icon, the 21 year old South London redhead is looking and sounding more than ever like the result of an orbiting race of electro aliens that picked up a transmission of Eurythmics on MTV in 1982, subjected it to terrifying space pop experiments then finally 28 years later beaming back down their own girl-that-fell-to-earth androgynous android pop sensation. Basically, it’s big.

Fresh from winning fans across the UK supporting Lily Allen on her national tour, La Roux steps into the spotlight as she heads up the prestigious NME Radar Tour this April and May.

The incredible new single ‘Bulletproof’ precedes the debut self titled album out June 29th and looks sure to confirm La Roux is one of 2009’s brightest stars.
