Track of the Week: Blancmange - The Western

A few weeks ago, Blancmange let the world hear the first track from Blanc Burn, their first album in 26 years. The track's called The Western, and it's got those Eastern synth sounds that were so great in their 80s releases (e.g. Living on the Ceiling).

The very up-to-date electro bassline, which seems to have become the trend for a lot of 80s comeback bands, keeps it from being just another throwback - and really makes me feel confident that Blancmange is back.
