Moloko

stannis

God, I love Moloko. Things To Make And Do was the first album I ever bought, and Tight Sweater is a real delight. And Roisin Murphy is Irish! Moloko is so much more than "Sing It Back".

What's your favourite Moloko album? And your general thoughts on the band?

Each to their own and all that, but boy was it just one of those tunes I hated so much (Sing it Back), and the follow up one to that? Don't get me started...

"Sing It Back" got annoying alright, not just the tune, but because it completely obscured their other songs.

Honestly, if you listen to a Moloko album they're completely different from that kind of radio-friendly dance/pop. Their songs are generally original, humorous and a bit dark. There's great variety in their styles too.

Anyone who hasn't should definitely give them a try (maybe on Last.fm). For those who have the albums, what's your favourite?

I was looking at the video for sing it back there not too long ago, and my god has it dated.

Must get some of their other music. Never really got into them when they were big.

I heard a remix of The Time Is Now and really like it. Her solo stuff is pretty good too.
