Gone is the Depeche Mode style sound, replaced by something more akin to Pet Shop Boys, or even Morrissey. Second track, &#8216;When I Look In Your Eyes&#8217; is possibly the most radio friendly song of theirs to date, and there&#8217;s a nice interplay between Juno and Spark&#8217;s vocals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Like Yesterday&#8217; opens up like David Bowie&#8217;s &#8216;Cat People (Putting Out Fire)&#8217;, which he wrote with Giorgio Moroder, but quickly becomes a proper duet, with Juno and Spark each taking turns at singing a line of the song. As always, their harmonies are on point.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Final track on the EP, &#8216;The One Beside You&#8217;, is a lush, almost disco number, with jangly guitars and bass, along with gorgeous synths and percussion will have you wishing the EP was much longer than 4 tracks, but then again, there&#8217;s nothing to stop you hitting repeat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;New Moons&#8217; is out today.
