The famed group that brought you Only In The Night, Give Me Your Love, You Will Smile Again is back with a brand new album. The Moment of Truth a mix of old style freestyle, Euro pop and electronic dance pop music. Something for everyone that enjoys a dance pop mixture. The Moment of Truth is a culmination of two years of work by The Voice and features collaborations with their former producer Lewis Martinee (Expose, Pet Shop Boys, Germain Jackson), as well as Peter Marr (London Exchange) and Fro Sosa (Nuclear Valdez). Features eleven new original songs as well as two covers The Man Who Sold The World (David Bowie) and Domino Dancing (Pet Shop Boys), which The Voice originally did the backing vocals for. New Album By The Voice In Fashion Reviewed The Voice In Fashion have a history that dates back to the mid 80's and had some Billboard success with the track 'All We Need'. The band consists of two members, David Hanono and Salvador Hanono and are based in Miami in the states. They have just recorded a brand new album called 'The Moment Of Truth' and I have been sent a copy which has been getting plenty of listens prior to reviewing it. The opening track on the album is a cover of David Bowie's 'The Man Who Sold The World' and it gets a very impressive electronic makeover with a dance vibe. A version that would certainly go down well in clubs. This version is how I would imagine the Pet Shop Boys would sound if they had covered the song. A great start to the album. Track 2 'In The Heat Of The Moment' has a more soulful feel to it which works well, some neat rhythm parts in this song. It's a track that grows on you the more you hear it. 'I Catch Myself' reminded me a little of Prince, excellent vocal treatment and a track that is spacious with plenty of room for all aspects of the instrumentation. 'Round Your Finger' is another track that reminded me of the Pet Shop Boys, has a similar feel to their song 'Domino Dancing' which by coincidence is a track that has been recorded for this album by the band. It is really interesting that so far all the tracks have a different feel which makes for great listening and the trumpet in the last third of the track works so well, something I would never imagine saying! I really do like this track. Next is the title track of the album 'Moment Of Truth' which is very atmospheric with the heavy drum treatment and haunting synths and gentle melody parts. The guitar in the track blends well with the rest of the sound. I must say I like their use of rhythm in their songs, it sounds so powerful without being over the top. Another impressive track. 'Partner In Crime' has a superb feel to it, starts off almost as a ballad before a throbbing sequencer takes the track to Dance territory with a strong chorus, excellent vocals on this track and it is such a beautiful track, the best compliment I can pay this track is that if someone like Duran Duran had recorded it, it would be a definite hit, love it! 'Dance Of Love' again has a warm feel to it, a mid tempo track that has some great synth sections and wonderful rhythm parts (Again!), they excel in song construction, that is for sure. Probably my least favourite track on the album thus far but after a few listens has started to grab my attention. Now the next track 'Gates Of Heaven' was the first track I heard by The Voice In Fashion' and instantly loved it, a brilliant slice of synth pop with a fantastic chorus, a superbly produced song, it will instantly grab you. Another great track for the dance floor, a great lesson in how to write and produce the perfect pop song, an outstanding track. 'Perfect Lie' is a gorgeous ballad with acoustic guitar, beautiful pads and simple synth melody and it works so well. The vocal on this track is also very impressive, continues the trend of varied tracks on the album. A wonderful and well executed ballad. 'Redeem Yourself' is a track that was recently included on my Radio Show and is a punchy electrofest! An upbeat catchy track and sing-a-long chorus, a great choral middle 8 section. A fantastic track that woul
