Cut Copy Paste



Holy cow, is '07 the return of Cut Copy? The group (or just Dan Whitford, the wizard behind the curtains himself) has posted a new track that will be the first single from the upcoming follow-up to Bright Like Neon Love on their Myspace called "Hearts On Fire," and so far the new music sounds promising. With Tim Goldsworthy (DFA/The Loving Hand) at the helms for recording, and I'm guessing producing, I think the new record will pick up a more late night club vibe continuting in the vein of the 80's new wave aesthetic.

"Hearts On Fire" sounds more of an artifact of the 80's than Cut Copy's ever done, with definite elements of New Order's new wave/post-punk influence (among several other discernible 80's artists) seeping into the track. I'm not going to rip the track this time but mercy, mercy I urge you to click over to their Myspace and stream it for yourself here.
