Wears the Trousers review - Strangelove
Former Black Box Recorder singer Sarah Nixey releases
her second solo single on July17th in collaboration with
independent label ServiceAV. Taken from her forthcoming
solo album Sing, Memory, Strangelove will be available
as a digital download, CD single and as a deluxe limited
edition heavyweight 7" vinyl. For those who entirely
bypassed her first steps into the pop world alone,
that song, The Collector, appears in the shape of
three spangly remixes in a generous helping of B-sides.
Comma, Infantjoy and Pete Davis are the contributors,
which may mean something to someone so take note!
Nixey plans to release exclusive remixes of Strangelove,
as well as more of The Collector, as downloads later
this year.

MSN review - Sarah Nixey : Strangelove
Second solo single from the former Black Box Recorder chanteuse could well be mistaken for the sound of Kraftwerk having a go at Stevie Wonder's Superstition.
Undeniably electro Strangelove is also a track that has a halfhearted attempt at funk, and the result is endearingly kitsch. Cool as ever Sarah plays the ensnared lover caught in the web of an ill-conceived romance, delivering a succession of bitter sweet curses with that delectable Queen's English dialect that only she and possibly HRH Lizzie can get away with.
They don't make too many pop records like this anymore.

Arjanwites review - Strangelove
Former Black Box Recorder singer Sarah Nixey is hitting the pop scene on her own with her second solo single "Strangelove" due out on iTunes on July 17. "Strangelove" is a song about the hell and heaven of love that Nixey approaches with both cool and fury. Musicallly, this seemingly menacing track is a pure pop confection with a frothy synth arrangement and Nixey's totally irresistible disco chic vocals in proper Queen's English. "Dress to kill. Make your mark," Nixey sings. Get ready for Sarah Nixey. A stylish pop force to be reckoned with.
The single will be released by producers Paul Morley and James Banbury’s boutique label ServiceAV. The duo is currently also working on Nixey's debut album that is due out later this year. If you have moment, also check out Nixey first single "The Collector" with mixes by The Freelance Hellraiser and others. Clikc here to purchase the 7" limited edition of "Strangelove."

Playlouder review - Strangelove
Sarah Nixey - 'Strangelove'
(ServiceAV)
'Strangelove' marks the latest move of former Blackbox Recorder vocalist Sarah Nixey away from misanthropic anti-Di-pop into less cultish areas. Consequently, this is a good piece of grown up electronic pop, the kind of thing they probably listen to in strange climes, like Notting Hill. Still, fans of her earlier work will be left wanting something that better suits her ability to sound as chilly as the abominable snowman's refrigerated corpse - so a forthcoming cover of David Sylvian's 'Ghosts' could be intriguing indeed.
