There are so many juicy in-jokes and nuances here diehard fans of cold wave and synth pop pioneers Soft Cell will be in their element. Magick Mutants gives a subtle nod to the band's ultra-cult 1980 EP Mutant Moments, and is a great example of why we should sometimes look back when trying to look forward.

All four songs here are from the archives, 'Back To Nature' is a cover of Fad Gadget's 1979 single, here with all the dystopian electronic boom and gloom of the original work also included on the release. 'Science Fiction Stories', 'Bleak Is My Favourite Cliche' and 'The Girl With The Patent Leather Face' are reimagined classics, re-done for this package often in very subtle ways to make them more suited to 21st Century ears and dancefloors. Read that as solid, darkwave, electro punk goodness and grab a copy.
