Our Take

Gary Numan's "The Pleasure Principle" is a synthpop masterpiece that oozes with futuristic vibes and infectious melodies. With his robotic vocals and pulsating electronic beats, Numan takes us on a journey through a dystopian world where man and machine collide. From the anthemic "Cars" to the haunting "Metal," Numan proves he is a true visionary in the world of electronic music. The production on this album is top-notch, with layers of synths and drum machines creating a sound that is both mesmerizing and danceable. Numan's lyrics explore themes of technology, isolation, and alienation, giving the album a dark and thought-provoking edge. Tracks like "M.E." and "Complex" showcase Numan's introspective side, while songs like "Films" and "Engineers" bring a more upbeat energy to the mix. Overall, "The Pleasure Principle" is a timeless classic that still sounds fresh and innovative over 40 years since its release. Numan's influence on the electronic music scene is undeniable, and this album cements his status as a true pioneer in the genre. So grab your neon jumpsuit and your trusty synthesizer, because Gary Numan is taking us on a retro-futuristic ride that you won't want to miss. "The Pleasure Principle" is a must-listen for any fans of electronic music, and a true gem in Numan's impressive discography.
