As one of the pioneers of the synth-pop sound currently ruling the charts, Erasure could easily rest on its laurels. Instead, with "Tomorrow's World" (Mute), Andy Bell and Vince Clarke show another generation how dance music should be done. "Fill Us With Fire" is an anthem for the environment that could have come from Lady Gaga. "I Lose Myself" is a soulful electro-pop number that would be perfect for La Roux. "A Whole Lotta Love Run Riot" is a thunderous dance anthem and a should-be smash that could bring Erasure another well-deserved hit.
