Electric Blanket pushes electronic pop to the point of creating basic warmth, creating music anchored in raw, demanding beats, and floated by vocals that toy with beautiful tones, singing on themes of incompletion and searches for a new cure.
The active guitar and synthesizer allow the audience to be seduced and beguiled but never fully satisfied.
The lyrics are deceptively simple, creating intimate storylines that merge with electronica, forming soundscapes woven around an essential silence.
In performance, the seductive onstage languor of Lenka (vocals) provides a foil to the nouveau high-tech performance of Patrick (synthesizer and guitar).
With a flair for theatrics suggestive of a tech-wizard, Patrick conducts his instruments beneath and through the sometimes-lilting, sometimes-keening lyrics of Lenka, filling the soundspace restlessly.
It's this electronic restlessness beneath the sweet vocals which characterizes the band.
Through the melodies and performance we glimpse a compensation for absent forms, and this is the edge to Electric Blanket.
