Extravaganza is a celebration of when pop was pretty innocent. In that sense, this album is brilliant. No silly Danja rifts. Just pure pop. Yes, there are the swear-words and taken as a whole, the album excels in being rather rude in its content but highly clean in its sound and layout.
If you can recall a time before the pop princess emerged as a constant tabloid construct and the only real story was her singles and albums you’ll love Anniela’s new album. It retraces a sort of pop we rarely hear these days. There are no Bloodshy type songs here, Robyn-ilk tracks are elsewhere and both RedOne and Danja productions are simply figments of the imagination.| |This is pop as it was once: neat, structured, sexy, rude, indecent and pure. As such, it is beyond zeitgeist and thus Extravaganza is a great album. An extravaganza indeed!| |
