Missed This One : Gwenno

Arghhh! You can't catch it all. I missed Gwenno (ex-Pipettes) 2015 political concept album Y Dyadd Olaf presented in her two two languages, Welsh and the nearly obscure Cornish. The album title is based on an obscure 1976 sci-fi novel written by Welsh author Owain Owain about robots turning humans into clones. Applied to modern times, big themes like political brainwashing, media propaganda, and bullying of minorities permeate her retro/modern synth-pop record.

RIYL: Ladytron, Enon, and the last Broadcast album Tender Buttons.
