Friends, I do not exaggerate when I tell you that in every moment
on Massive Luxury Overdose lies an opportunity to enter the
sticky expanses of somebody elses Big Idea, and to therein
find oneself by turns delighted, confused, disoriented, amused,
and compelled by force to dance. Twelve songs launch a relentless
campaign against any ideology that does not embrace Army of Lovers
own indeterminate blend of mysticism, homoeroticism, gauche materialism,
and nostalgia not just for the dance music of the early-to-mid-eighties
(whence comes Army of Lovers quite delightful sound) but for
the India of the Raj, and for medieval Spain, and for Alexandria
in all its glory. Does it not go without saying that Army of Lovers
are also quite popular in Russia? But of course.
