_Beth Ditto – “Open Heart Surgery”

This came as a surprise to me, as I haven’t heard any news about this release. Beth Ditto has released a 4 track EP in collaboration with Simian Mobile Disco, which is a great collaboration (remember “Cruel Intentions”?) Her first single (solo from Gossip) and standout track is titled “Open Heart Surgery”, which captures the essence of an early 90′s track. It’s a good song, but sounds like a part two of “Cruel Intentions”. It would’ve been nice for them to expand their sound a bit more.
