There's a mesmeric momentum at the heart of Factory Floor's debut album. Whatever about the lengthy gestation period, it's obvious that the span and intensity of its contours, twists and tensions have been dramatically improved over time, as the London trio reworked and redrafted their blueprint. As the album progresses and gains in heft, it locks into a groove which just drives on and on and on, as if the machines had taken over the controls. Factory Floor hook and hypnotise the listener by turning industrial, disco and electronic forms into new, alluring, alien shapes. On Breathe 1 (a flitter of Balearic disco gives way to an apocalyptic soundcloud), Turn It Up (gritty funk underpinning an autobahn clatter) and Here Again (full of enigmatic, terse anti-pop allure), Factory Floor truly sound like some of the most exciting adventure seekers making music today. facebook.com/factoryfloor
