About:
Music for an Accelerated Culture:

'The Prodigy’s energy, Dizzee’s vocal delivery and Bloc Party’s indie-dance” Mixmag

'Declaration Of War' is one of the points on the album where you really get a sense of Hadouken! taking convincing steps towards becoming the definitive 21st century pop group without sacrificing any of their character or credibility' PopJustice

'Hadouken!, for my money represent the sound of a bright young Britain, and as such are exactly the type of band that heavyweight critics will adore, once they’ve had a chance to catch up with what’s really going on in the music scence.' Subba Cultcha

'Music for an Accelerated Culture' couldn't be more zeitgeisty if it tried. The existential elegance of "Declaration of War" and the Bowie-via-Kasabian stomp of "Mister Misfortune" show an unexpected versatility, and "Driving Nowhere" is oddly romantic, and dare I say, even new romantic. The Independent

'It’s like listening to The Prodigy trapped in a Nintendo game and trying to get out by reworking The Streets’ songs.' New-Noise

The album is out now...
