The Return of The Human League
Their music can be heard through every subverted electro-pop act since the release of Dare in 1981 (the year I was born). The Human League’s synthpop sound has been cited as an influence by everyone from Madonna to Robbie Williams, from Moby to Little Boots. This week, they return with the single Night People from Credo, their first studio album in 10 years. Am I excited? Maybe. It sounds like they’ve just picked up where they left off, which is not necessarily a bad thing. It’s a good track and it bodes well for the new album, which will be released in March 2011. They will also tour here in the new year (dates tbc). What do you think of Night People? Will you catch The Human League when they visit us?
