Marsheaux’s new album is called ‘Ath.Lon’; the title is derived from the first syllables of the two cities which served as the background for their new material: Athens and London. The title brings to mind the Greek word ‘athlos’ meaning the achievement. Considering the circumstances in which the ten songs on ‘Ath.Lon’ were created, observers will recognise it as an achievement, the crown of their twelve year career and a new chapter in their creativity.
‘Ath.Lon’ is crunchy, sexy and optimistic. And as every original electro pop artist should do, it looks into the horizons of the future.
From the lusty and sexy ‘Burning’, to the evocative sounds of the past on ‘Wild Heart’, with respectful bows to their influences from OMD to Saint Etienne, Marsheaux have a new found confidence. This is exemplified by the first single ‘Safe Tonight’ which features a spectacular video.
