Album: Flatline
Not a new song, but English trio Mutya Keisha Siobhan are a re-formed original lineup of late 90s U.K. girl group Sugarbabes, who in 2006 were named the most successful female act of the 21st Century by British Hit Singles & Albums. Like Girls Aloud, I know nothing about them.
Thanks to reader Sean, I gave this track a chance and it finally clicked with me. (months later) "Flatline" is an odd, punchy, R&B/indie-pop fusion that soars with the ladies harmonizing. Great track. There is a forthcoming full-length album on the way that doesn't yet have a title or release date.
Any Sugarbabes fans reading this? Let me know where I should start if I wanted to go back and check them out. I have to say that after loving Girls Aloud's Nicola Roberts debut album, and digging their reunited single "Something New," I didn't connect with anything off their greatest hits. Just a bit too poppy.
"Flatline" deserves your time though. Love the big drums outro.
Enjoy.
Flatline
