'Jagged' is Gary Numan's latest studio album and will be released in the UK and Europe on March 13 and in the United States and Canada on March 21.
It's the first album of new material since the acclaimed 'Pure' album of 2000.
If Replicas was the future in a Buck Rogers/Barbarella kind of way, then Jagged is a prophesised Android Armageddon, replete with a dark wave industrial metal soundtrack. It's scary, but the special effects are spellbinding. Numan's vocals are superb throughout, still disconnected obviously, but in songs such as "In A Dark Place" and "Haunted" he conjures up soaring choruses that fill your head to bursting. Elsewhere, barely audible noises clash with bulldozer guitars, whispered voices speak of isolation but suggest that you are not alone, and bass lines swell and bounce like steel balloons, combining to make Jagged an exhilarating, if at times claustrophobic, experience.
