Dry Cleaning - Secret Love
100

Man, loved this like I hadn't loved something since Diamond Jubilee probably. In trying new things, I think this is the closest they've come to defining their sound. Feels like their Remain in Light to me. And as much as I miss Parish's raw craftsmanship, Le Bon's bubbly postpunk touch pairs perfectly with the band humor.

Luke Temple is probably one of the must underrated American musicians working today. Someone who only gets better with each release. Here's how I rank his Here We Go Magic/solo work.
