Having just released a B-movie-inspired video for “She Wants to Play With Fire,” Los Angeles duo Night Club yet again bring us into their seedy underworld of dominatrix synth. Singer Emily Kavanaugh’s video battle with a vengeful Tarantino-esque female leaves her hair tousled and lipstick smudged enough to reawaken Madonna’s naughtier side. On their forthcoming EP “Black Leather Heart” (out next week), Kavanaugh and her other musical half, DJ/producer Mark Brooks, continue to create a provocative soundtrack for the dark corners of dirty synth-pop minds. Inspired by a lusty fusion of death metal-meets-Britney Spears, Night Club are resurrecting the sexier and more dangerous parts of ’80s dance-glam.
