Cut Copy Cops to the Eighties Sound of Their New Album, Zonoscope


Lots of music blogs have identified Cut Copy's new synth-pop single "Take Me Over" as being a aware union of Men at Work's "Down Under" and Fleetwood Mac's "Everywhere."

Upon meeting the techno quartet in New York City dive bar Blue and Gold, marauder mentions the dramatic similarities in bass and vocal lines, and drummer Mitchell Scott says, "There's never that discussion of, 'We want to sound like this.'" Okay, so we move to Exhibit B in the case for their having a purposefully eighties sound: "Sun God," the fifteen-minute tripped-out closer to their keenly awaited third album, Zonoscope (out this week), which cops the iconic, repetitive bass line from the Talking Heads' 1981 "Once in a Lifetime."

At this, bassist Ben Browning, who is adorable but also the group’s grumpiest (often rolling his eyes in seeming impatience), relents a little: “People will write on your music, ‘That sounds like that old song,’ and that’s the moment you say, ‘Oh yeah, maybe that is something I was channeling at the time.’" Front man Dan Whitford adds a nod of admiration to his Aussie forebears: "I can absolutely think of worse people to be compare to than Men at Work.”
