Liverpool, ENGLAND's Electro-Rock four-piece outfit Ladytron first came
together in the late '90s around the core of lead vocalist Helen Marnie,
keyboardist+vocalist Mira Aroyo and rhythm box+keyboards players Daniel
Hunt and Reuben Wu.
The group debuted in 1999 with the 7-inch "He Took Her To A Movie",
followed a year later by the "Mu-Tron" EP.
In February 2001, their first full-length album, "604", was
finally released, it spawned a glut of imitators obsessing over vintage
synths and asymmetric haircuts, yet Ladytron always stood apart, less
concerned with the superficial.
Their darker late 2002 release "Light & Magic" featuring
the worldwide cult hit "Seventeen", was toured around the globe
for 12 months, selling out coast to coast in the U.S. along the way and
eventually hit #7 on the Billboard's Top Electronic Albums chart.
Returning home, they started work immediately on their new record, "Witching
Hour", which was issued in October 2005 on Island Records, it includes
the U.K. top 40 hit single "Destroy Everything You Touch".
