Coldwave/Synth
It has been eight years since Gary Numan gave us 'Hybrid', and we need the frustrations, anger, rage, anxiety and sinister moods that pervade this growing and snarling masterpiece now more than ever, even if that's just to help let it all out. Logically titled - this is perhaps Numan's most inter-referential and genre-colliding record - thankfully you could hear the album daily and its impact would never wane.
From the post-apocalyptic breakbeats of 'Hybrid' itself, through the menacing, operatic epic that is 'Dark', 'Torn''s metal electroclash and the emo-goth New Romanticism of 'Down In The Park', it's a breathtaking experience taking it all in, one that compares to the most charged, challenging but fundamentally life affirming art. A schooling from a genuine genius whose studio track record remains impeccable.
