Il y a plus de vingt ans, Neil Tennant, grande gueule pop parmi tant d’autres, avouait regretter que ses morceaux soient perçus uniquement comme des machines à faire balancer les bourrelets sur les dance floors. Comme si un songwriter digne de ce nom ne pouvait donner envie de se trémousser. Il est vrai qu’il ne faut pas spécialement être Johnny Cash ou Lou Reed pour savoir épancher son spleen, se revendiquer cynique, écrire « I love you, you pay my rent ». C’est peut‑être une des raisons qui avait poussé Pet Shop Boys à reprendre le standard Always On My Mind [...]
Chromatics had been at work on their follow up to 2007's Night Drive for nearly five years until Kill For Love unexpectedly dropped on iTunes a couple of weeks ago. It has since garnered an intense amount of critical praise, and is, in our opinion, one of the better albums this year has seen thus far. We were able to trade words with Chromatics' Johnny Jewel and talk about some of the other projects he's involved with, as well as the creative process that spawned such an incredible album as [...]

It's been five long years since the icy dance killer Night Drive was released by Portland electronic quartet Chromatics and five long months since the announcement of the imminent new album. Label Italians Do It Better reported yesterday that the wait is now over and double album Kill For Love has now been released. No fewer than five tracks have seen the light of day over the internet during that five months so [...]
Even though the score he created for the movie ended up unused, Drive is the best thing that could've ever happened to Johnny Jewel. Jewel is the hazy-synthpop producer and multi-instrumentalist behind groups like the Chromatics, Glass Candy, and Desire. Over the past few years, he's been one of the world's leading Italo-disco revivalists, the guy whose various projects did as much to bring back metronomic synth-disco as anyone, anywhere. But those different projects tended to blend into one another, and after a few years, they'd come to seem pretty monochromatic and limited. Drive changed that. [...]
Nachdem ich mit Desire neulich ja schon eine Band der „Neo-Noir-Disco“-„Welle vorgestellt habe, kommen nun die Chromatics , die ebenfalls auf dem Italians Do It Better-Label sind und musikalisch in ein vergleichbares Horn stoßen. Die Veröffentlichung ihres neuen Albums «Kill for love» steht an, und vier Songs daraus wurden bereits mit Videos versehen. Monoton-melancholische Großstadtatmosphäre deluxe! Discomusik zum Nicht-Tanzen. Wem Lana del Rey zu elegisch ist, kann sich seine Depressionen hier ebenfalls gut abholen. (Übrigens ist das LdR-Album bisher meine CD des Jahres, auch wenn man das bei dem ganzen Hype um sie gar nicht mehr zugeben [...]

Chromatics on [...]
In case you missed it, synthpop/Italo Disco outfit Chromatics will be releasing Kill For Love , the highly-anticipated follow-up to their much beloved 2007 LP Night Drive , very soon (the release has been delayed due to some mastering issues). We've already heard the cover of Neil Young's "Into the Black" along with two other album tracks, and now we have another album track to spin entitled "Candy" via a new music video. It's another in a series of videos produced by Italian filmmaker Alberto Rossini. Hear and see the eerie daydream below. [...]
The fourth track and video to come from Chromatics forthcoming full-length album Kill For Love , ‘Candy’ is the latest grainy, kaleidoscopic, 70s revivalist affair from director Alberto Rossini. Kill For Love is due out via Italians Do It Better later this year.
La banda de Portland Chromatics está por sacar su cuarto LP Kill For Love y adelanta algunos videos. Liderado por la cantante Ruth Radelet , el grupo ya ha sacado tres videos de su próximo disco y ahora podemos ver un cuarto. El primero fue para la canción Kill For Love que ha sido incluída en la película del año pasado, Drive . El segundo, para Into The Black es el [...]
Hace apenas unas semanas hablábamos del regreso de Chromatics, una banda procedente de Oregón que estrena en 2012 su Kill For Love . Se filtraba el vídeo para “Lady” , un tema muy interesante que se centraba en la Silver City Prom. Ahora lanzan “Candy”, segundo vídeo y ya cuarto sencillo del mencionado nuevo trabajo. “Candy” llega después de la citada “Lady” y también de “Into The Black”, una versión del mismísimo Neil Young, y del tema que da nombre al disco, y en su vídeo se nos presenta un tema bastante lento que de nuevo [...]
Another day, another tantalizing glimpse at the upcoming Chromatics record. This is the fourth advance single for Kill for Love , whose release has been continually pushed back due to mastering issues. The good news! The mastering problems have been solved and the record's on its way. The other good news! Here's a new song and video from the record to enjoy. This one's called "Candy," and it's the subject of another atmospheric video from Alberto Rossini. This one's all glamor and gloss, a slow-burning downtempo track with emotion bubbling just under the [...]
Okay, it's a little more specific than the title suggests, but not by much. Producer/band member Johnny Jewel has done an interview with Self-Titled Magazine , which suggests that we can expect the long, long awaited album at the end of this month. As a teaser, they've released their fourth single from the upcoming LP, Kill For Love , called 'Candy'. That's the video you can see above. While we've all been waiting for the album to meet Mr Jewel's exacting standards, the [...]
