Watched Over By Machines Of Loving Grace

by This Is The Bridge

supported by

Jon Harper Just as you think you know where This Is The Bridge is going there's another handbrake turn. Last album sounded like a post punk pub gig (and that's no insult, it was urgent, real and excellent), this time it's a big deep melodic sound. Don't think I will ever get bored of This Is The Bridge.

Superb, a perfect blend of early Human League and Fad Gadget with an undercurrent of Numan. No awful synth wave retro cheese, no trying to be Kraftwerk, this is British synth music that manages to sound like an experiment in 1979, totally relevant to 2020 AND the future. Jon Harper

On their 10th record, the Glasgow-based group serves up more wonderfully menacing, gothy synthpop, perfect for dungeon dancing. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
