Agoria's second album, THE GREEN ARMCHAIR, kicks off with the dark electro of "Baboul Hair Cuttin" before the kick drums of "Code 1026" punch their fists in the air. And althought the initial flip-flop of fast song-slow song suggests that it will continue throughout the album (with the soul-dredging "Million Miles" followed by the cool and bright "Europa"), the album slows down considerably. Scalde channels Freddie Mercury in his delivery of mysteriously poetic lyrics for "Your Inner Kiss," as his voice turns into a chorus of ghosts. Meanwhile, on the dirge-like "Edenbridge," Peter Murphy channels... well, Peter Murphy. Princess Superstar brings her own sleazy stylings to the sci-fi electro of "Lips on Fire." And "Les Violons Ivres" finally brings back the kick drums, drenched, appropriately enough, in strings. Solid.
