Kylie's new album 'Aphrodite' is the Antipodean pop princess at her best. Her multiple collaborations with Jake Shears, Calvin Harris, Richard X, Sebastian Ingrosso, Luciana Caporaso, Nerina Pallot, Cutfather, Nervo and Tim Rice-Oxley of Keane have paid off and the album is full of infectious and euphoric dance pop tracks that swim around your head for hours after listening.
Whereas 'All the Lovers' is a grower, tracks like 'Get Out of My Way', 'Put Your Hands Up', 'Better Than Today', 'Too Much' and 'Can't Beat the Feeling' are instant dance classics. The other tracks on the album 'Everything is Beautiful','Aphrodite', 'Illusion', 'Cupid Boy' and 'Looking For an Angel' are classic pop Kylie at her best.
'Closer', the collaboration with Keane's Tim Rice-Oxley, is a slightly more haunting track that will make the harpsichord fashionable again for the first time in a few hundred years.
Kylie has stated that she is very proud of this album and I can see why. If you are feeling down and need a pick-me-up then this definitely is the album for you.
