Lovelife

Lovelife

The snappy “Ladykillers”—with its feminist admonishments intoned in classic Cockney—gave Lush a new lease on life. The remainder of Lovelife shows the band in what frontwoman Miki Berenyi later called a “zappier” mode. It’s not only that the production is simpler and more forthright than in years past, but that the band—and especially their two female leaders—seem more comfortable with their purpose. They could pull off straight pop tunes like “Single Girl,” “500,” and “Runaway” only because they were so much more than a straight pop band.
