  Ladytron gullbuy review
Ladytron's Softcore Jukebox is a gift for those who missed Ladytron making the DJ rounds this past year (count me as one of those, since they came here to Boston on a Sunday night).
Softcore Jukebox is an interested cd, coming at a time in music history when a number of things are occurring.
Ladytron go into why they put together Softcore Jukebox here - it's too bad what's written on this website isn't included as liner notes as well, because the cd buyer is left scratching their head about the why and the wherefore of Softcore Jukebox.

 Ladytron - Softcore Jukebox - Review - Stylus Magazine
The difference here lies in the fact that Softcore Jukebox is not part of a series, but just an offering from the band to their fans, who are expected to take the band’s taste on good faith.
Semi, because the first is a revision of a V. 2.0 of an old song of theirs (Light and Magic’s “Blue Jeans”) and because the second was already released in Europe as a b-side (and is a cover).
Softcore Jukebox’s “Blue Jeans” replaces the organs of the Light and Magic version with some guitars!

 Ladytron: Softcore Jukebox: Pitchfork Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Sure, they may be big shots in the highly dubious world of "electropop," what with their fancy blinking-light keyboards and Roxy Music tribute cover art.
But in the era of the file-sharing speakeasy, when the distance between recommendation and listening is covered as fast as your DSL runs, pause-between-tracks compilations of this sort don't fulfill the role they used to.
Okay, okay, Softcore Jukebox is such an excellent grab-bag I can cut it some slack.

 Ladytron: Witching Hour - PopMatters Music Review
With the addition of a full band behind the synth quartet, their live sound began taking on more of a krautrock style, as rigid Kraftwerk elements meshed with a more progressive, Can-style element.
The 2003 mix CD Softcore Jukebox offered hints of Ladytron's continued growth, from the cover photo of Marnie and Aroyo, an homage to Roxy Music (whose song is the band's namesake), to the reworked version of "Blue Jeans", to the raucous, punk-fueled cover of Tweet's "Oops, Oh My".
Listening to the eclectic tracks on Softcore Jukebox, from My Bloody Valentine, to The Fall, to Cristina, to Lee Hazlewood, the prospect of what Ladytron's third full-length would sound like was encouraging, and after the long wait, their much-anticipated follow-up delivers on the promise.

Ladytron “Softcore Jukebox” (Emperor Norton) — The British electro-clash band Ladytron shows off its obscure band knowledge with “Softcore Jukebox,” a mix tape of music the band thought you just had to listen to.
Following its 2002 release of synthesized dance-floor pop, “Jukebox” gathers Ladytron’s favorite dance music including Shocking Blue’s “Send Me a Postcard,” My Bloody Valentine’s “Soon” and Fannypack’s “Hey Miami.” No matter the title, this album is hard-core good.
At a time when young bands are pillaging ’60s and ’70s rock music and considering themselves original, it’s thrilling to hear how much imaginative talent there was among bands in this area 35 years ago.

 BILLBOARD
It'd be nice to drop any band into a lab centrifuge and see what musical elements you might extract.
That's essentially what the pan-European synth-pop outfit Ladytron has voluntarily done with "Softcore Jukebox," mostly a compilation of tracks from various Ladytron favorites stretching from the '60s up to the present.
Like a good mix tape, "Softcore Jukebox" makes for a fun listen even as it sends you scrambling to scribble down a future shopping list.

 Ladytron: Softcore Jukebox - PopMatters Music Review
Not only that, but its eye-catching, nocturnal cover photo is considerably better than a blank index card.
The song selections on Softcore Jukebox are eclectic, ranging from Sixties psychedelic kitsch, to late '70s post punk, to new wave, to early '90s Britrock, to contemporary techno, electro, and dance.
The unmistakable theme of the first third of Softcore Jukebox is post punk.

Presented as a collection of favorite songs from the group, the initial misconception will be for many that these tracks are actually mixed, which will find you standing in wonder, scratching your head at how the hell some of these songs actually lead into each other.
Reflecting the current trend in Indie DJing, this isn't a mix in the Dance music sense but a mix in the tape-trading sense: Ladytron's like that kid that sat behind you in school, reminiscent of Jordan Catalano from "My So Called Life", and they've brought you a musical primer on how to be cool.
This "Jukebox" is filled with songs that, regardless of their age or style, fill in the dotted lines that trace through the current mingling of Indie, Electro and Glitterpunk.

I knew that it was a compilation of other stuff, but I guess I just didn't fancy what was compiled.

 FFWD Weekly - October 23, 2003
It’s kind of sweet that the folks in Ladytron want to give their fans a mix tape of their favourite music.
Younger fans of the electro-pop group may not have heard of The Fall, Wire or Shocking Blue, all of whom are included on Softcore Jukebox.
It does seem a bit self-aggrandizing, though, that Ladytron has also elected to include two of its own tracks, as well as three artists who are protégés of group member Daniel Hunt.

The somewhat provocatively named and packaged mix album Softcore Jukebox offers some of the origins and contemporaries of Ladytron's stylish sound, encompassing new wave, post-punk, dream pop, dance-pop, and electronica.
It's not surprising that a group that makes such sleekly tasteful sounds also has impeccable taste in music, and the mix reflects this not only in its tracks but its sequencing as well.
I can't adequately explain how wonderful this song is. Whichever member of Ladytron that selected this song for Softcore Jukebox has given me a beautiful gift indeed.

Having said that, Softcore Jukebox boasts an impressive lineup of artists from the past twenty years and some great cult items that deserve to be heard by a wider audience.
The fun starts with "Soon" from My Bloody Valentine who are currently experiencing a bit of a revival, thanks to the use of their music in the new film Lost In Translation.
All in all, Softcore Jukebox is a revealing look into Ladytron's musical tastes and influences and is better than 90% of most of the other "electroclash" mix discs out there at the moment.
