Product Description

CD Description

There's been a lot of hubbub about the marketing tactics ofthis album by a teenage lesbian female duo, who are pictured in the booklet as frolicking schoolgirls locking all available limbs around each other in their underwear. Still, thatdoesn't mean that said duo's debut album 200 KM/H IN THE WRONG LANE is lacking in pop hooks or spot-on production. Withace producers like the estimable Trevor Horn on hand, one would scarcely expect otherwise. With most of the album splitbetween straight-ahead dance-pop and a kind of post-Alanis aggro rock tempered by the pair's wispy, Bjork-like voices. It's something of a surprise to be confronted mid-album witha quite faithful cover of the Smiths' beloved paean to misery "How Soon is Now", and no less of a surprise to find how seamlessly it's brought across. Adding an exotic, one-big-world touch to the whole affair, the ladies in question (Lena Katina and Juia Volkova) hail from Russia, where their teen lipstick-lesbian image first brought them fame.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Pop, 28 Dec 2002
By Dave Bishop "Dave Bishop" (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
Finally we have a band which looks set to take on the mantle Strawberry Switchblade left in the mid-1980s!

Two teenage Russian lesbians front the band and considering you would expect them to sound as contrived as Atomic Kitten they dont at all, swathes of distorted guitars, huges basslines and great drumming stand out on nearly every track.

Although most people will know the single All The Things She Said the best track on the album is the cover of the Smiths How Soon Is Now? which is superb and I think better than the original, the girls really spit out the lyrics and I can't say how much I love it.

The two Russian songs are the two singles that have been put out in the country so far but sang in Russian.

These and the Cheeky girls might spark an influx of pop from Eastern Europe. If Girls Aloud are anything to go by we might just thank the former Soviet Blok for that!

5.0 out of 5 stars Who knew Russian could sound hot?, 14 Dec 2002
I have been listening to All The Things She Said for about two hours solid and I'm not bored yet! I love songs that tell a story and the video that goes with this one shouldn't be missed. Seems strange that three days ago I didn't know who TATU were. I saw the video on TV and I was hooked, a quick internet search hours later and I had heard the whole album live. It's a mixture of techno and ballads, some English, some Russian. Don't be put off by the idea of Russian music though, these girls can sing, and the way they sing Russian sounds sexy as hell. A cool addition to your CD collection, get it now and look hip before your friends catch on to how good TATU really are.

5.0 out of 5 stars Futuristic pop meets amusing marketing., 25 Mar 2003
By Jason Parkes "We're all Frankies'" (Worcester, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: 200 km/h in the Wrong Lane (Audio CD)
I love the Eastern European sensibility, taking the "free market" ethos of Western Capitalism to extreme ends- obviously this leads to terrible things like the trade in sex slaves & a rise in drug violence, but a flipside & a unit shifter is the career of Tatu. They are a marketing person's wet dream, lesbian chic & futuristic pop coming togther- obviously they had seen how popular girls in school uniforms are (think of Britney Spears or Pink dressed as schoolgirls in MTV videos). Of course it's an act- just like Eminem, Marilyn Manson & most other pop music...

So if you're one of those idiots who censure Tatu (like Judy Finnegan)- DON'T. Can't you see when you've been taken for a ride, albeit at 200 Km/H in the Wrong Lane?

Tatu are part of a vague shift in pop music away from boyband drivel or lame lukewarm r'n'b- so this fits in the same stratosphere as such Neptunes-productions as Justin Timberlake's Like I Love You or Britney Spears' I'm a Slave 4 U, or the joys of Timbaland- most notably Aaliyah's Try Again. It has an absolutely brilliant production courtesy of Trevor Horn (Frankie Goes to Hollywood- which might give you an idea, Propaganda, The Lexicon of Love, 'Slave to the Rhythm'). The production is as flawless & epic as recent releases by Rammstein, Queens of the Stone Age & NERD. It's what Garbage's 'Beautifulgarbage' tried to sound like- pop in a futurist sense, fusing elements of industrial and drum'n'bass. This reminded me a little of such albums as A Secret Wish, Only Heaven & Rated R.

There are plenty of great songs, notably overplayed single All the Things She Said & the next single Not Gonna Get Us- which sounds like a blend of DJ Rap's Bad Girl, a New Order record from the mid 80s: Laibach meets Britney Spears? Other joys include 30 Minutes and Malchick Gay, though an obvious highlight is their cover of The Smiths' How Soon is Now?- which must have been influenced by Love Spit Love's version for the TV series Charmed.

We can dispense with the false pop idols & their impotent pap- this is the sound of futuristic pop, sort of The Cardigan's circa 'Gran Turisimo' meets Propaganda- which is fine by me. Incidentally, I'm a Lena person!
