COMMODORE ROCK
Ladytron
(Invicta / Emperor Norton)
OK, so Abba turned down $1 billion to reform. Here's the next best thing -- and we bet they work a whole lot cheaper. Liverpool's Ladytron is your classic co-ed foursome with two guys who program the beats and punch the buttons while two gals sweetly croon cool vocals. Commodore Rock is just a four-track EP that precedes a full album due next year, but in only 13 minutes, its electro-pop melodies, swirly dry-ice grooves and robotic sheen spark memories of everyone from the Human League and Kraftwerk to Nico and Devo. Forget Frida and Agnetha; Mira and Helena are the new dancing queens.
