Client - In It For The Money

One of many Client singles that amp up the noise created within. In It For The Money is about as direct that Client ever got, not even trying to pretend that it’s all for the art and other ridiculous themes that many bands claim. It’s tight and harsh electro with Dubstar’s Sarah Blackwood’s (Client B) northern accent all over the Frasier Chorus’s Kate Holmes (Client A) angular synths. Worth the download for their version of Down To The Underground with guest vocals from one Pete Doherty.

First rate return to form from electro pop group Client, which includes in its line-up former Dubstar frontwoman, Sarah Blackwood.

Client return with "In for the Money', their first single from their second album which is called 'City' and which will come out in September. 'In for the Money' features war like sirens, and distorted vocals by Sarah Blackwood, formerly of Dubstar. It has a dark edge to it. Sarah sings "Give me love/give me sex/give me money", all in a thick Northern accent. 

'Down to the Underground', the first B side, comes across as like a more punky version of Depeche Mode. It has an early 80's vibe and backing vocals by lost kid Peter Doherty who sounds like a Smiths era Morrissey as he harmonises in the background. 'Burning Up' meanwhile sounds like a punky Human League and has slow, haunting vocals.

It is good to have Client back.
