About
Idiosyncratic Irish singer Róisín Murphy explores the alluringly synthetic sides of late-'70s/early-'80s disco-pop on <i>Overpowered</i>, giving the album a turbocharged pulse and candy-coated sheen. "Let Me Know" glitters brighter than a roller-rink disco ball in the heart of NYC, while "Dear Miami" plays with a sleazy Italo groove, and "Movie Star" is an Olivia Newton-John-meets-electro tour de force that's got Moroder written all over it. This record is 100% pure pleasure—a high kick of drama, art, and artifice for the dance floor.
