'Night Work' is the third album from US group Scissor Sisters. Returning to their NYC cabaret and club roots for inspiration, this effort sees the Jake Shears-fronted troupe collaborate with super producer Stuart Price (Madonna, Seal) and create a sleazy and sexy electronic disco record. Includes the single 'Fire With Fire'.
It’s been four years since “Ta Dah”, a long time in pop music, but as Jake explains, a whole bunch of tunes were binned in the process of putting the follow up together: “We had a whole album of material,” he says, “but we just weren’t sure we believed in it. Babydaddy played it to Elton John, and next thing I get a call from Elton. He just says, ‘This isn’t it, this isn’t the record. It’s just not right.’ So I went to Berlin and pressed the reset button. I had to be by myself, and dream, be sexy and, you know, be bad. I rode a bike and sat in the sun and smoked all day and was a kid again.” If what you need is a bit of high energy pop music to get you through the summer, then look no further than “Nightwork”.
