Elly Jackson last released an album in 2009. Once, a pop star leaving five years between their debut and its follow-up would have been unimaginable – so much would have happened in the interim that it would be almost impossible to keep up, to seem like anything other than a relic from a lost past. Even today, when rock and pop develops at a far slower pace, five years seems a very long time to wait. As it turned out, almost everything seemed to have gone wrong with La Roux's second album. In the wake of her debut's success, Jackson suffered from anxiety attacks that eventually prevented her from singing. At one point, she thought she had throat cancer.

Much of the time, La Roux sound strangely distorted, like the backing music from an early 1990s Sega Mega Drive game turned up to 11. Which isn't as irritating as it might seem on paper; in fact, it can even be rather charming ("Fascination", which could be Vince Clarke-era Depeche Mode, being an especially effective example). The singer's startlingly, almost comically shrill vocals were no obstacle to La Roux scoring their first bona fide hit single with "In For the Kill" (which hit the No 2 slot in April and stayed there for a month), but over the long haul they might grate. Wisely, once or twice (on the tough-talking "Bulletproof", for instance) Jackson opts to sing in a "normal" register.
