Black Tie Dynasty have tapped into that same heated blood that coursed through the legendary music of groups like Joy Division, Echo and the Bunnymen, and Depeche Mode to create sleek synth-rock for the modern day.

Transcending mere nostalgic melancholy, they have come together on Movements, and put to tape a work that is vital and immediate. Part dance record and part soundtrack to a headphone voyager's next great trip, Movements serves as both a canvas and litmus paper, preserving the finer aspects of their dynamic stage performance while testing new ground in an effort to deconstruct any preconceived notion of their image and ability. Their signature sound is made all the more compelling for its consistency and dramatic panache.

Movements on Idol Records is produced By John Congleton from The pAper chAse.
