Are there any other Ladytron fans out there? They're one of my favorite groups right now. :)

I used to listen to a lot of their stuff, a lot of electro, nu new wave, and tech-pop actually. How about Fischerspooner? :)

The cover of Roxy Music's "Ladytron" by The Venus in Furs from the Velvet Goldmine soundtrack is good. Which Ladytron are you talking about? The electronica act or the glitter rock band?

ok, I'll admit it. I like ladytron. I don't have enough of their music, though. Also, perhaps older, but "Seabound" is another import I'm fond of.

I loved the movie Velvet Goldmine, and I remember enjoying the music. Maybe I'll have to check this out! :)

I used to listen to a bit of ladytron myself. I also used to have this really cool sticker of them all in black looking spaced out at the camera. I slapped it up on a mirror that I used to slap cool stickers on. The mirror broke in a move :( I always had a little thing for electroclash that I try to keep under the radar. I have a small collection of electroclash records from my DJ days that I could never spin in my sets, lol... it always makes me think how far ahead of thier time Kraftwerk was.

I just downloaded a few of their tracks. I don't love them yet, but they're growing on me.

To reply to everyone collectively:
  1. I'm a huge fan of Fischerspooner.
  2. I've heard of Le Tigre (via their TKO song). I just ordered the whole album on allofmp3.com.
  3. I really enjoy Scissor Sisters as well. There's an excellent variety of songs on their album.

Not to take this thread too far afield from Ladytron, but the artist who has really been kicking my ass lately is Solex...lately, I can't get enough of her.

O.o a thread about ladytron! well YAY!! i AM a HUGE FAN! and im all about le tigre as well and stuff... like.... The Faint. If you NEVER heard the song: "Worked Up So Sexual"... then... you have NEVER EXPERIENCED dancing without being able to stop, no mater where you are at that precise moment. Here in Montreal there is a very big no-so-underground-anymore scnene for that kind of stuff. People dress that way, think that way, talk that way, have bands like that, go to bars with that type of music... Hey! It's life of the party!
We also have Dandi Wind (crazy voiced gal who jumps all around in demonics moves with costumes and makeups to die for) who moved here recently and the unfamous Saphire nightclub wich has oh so crazy night where you go in your underwears to pay slutty bingo while a band like them plays.

May I refer you to these sites, you will want to move in my town:

listen to the song I mentionned RIGHT NOW!! will ya!

Ok this was my best contribution ever to this SL so-called forum society. That's it.
What can I say, it got me very excited O.o;
