Don't Wanna Lose You

Austra's album, Feel It Break, is synth pop at it's best. Full of the high drama that makes Zola Jesus interesting, but in a Knife-y setting. A setting that with its icy stabs of synth and rumbling bass perfectly matches Katie Stelmanis' incredible voice. The album is one great song after another, but the two singles, Lose It and The Beat and the Pulse, are along with opener Darken Her Horse definite high points, and in themselves more than reason enough for you to go out and buy the album. Great stuff.
