Poptastic Confessions!: The Black Hit Of Space by Parralox

Parralox is back with an interesting concept. They have remade the Human League's 1980 album called Travelogue. As an added bonus, they are releasing a song every week for the next 17 weeks. We are already one week late (d'oh!) as the first song "The Black Hit Of Space" was released last week.

"The Black Hit Of Space" is a fun song with John on lead vocals. To be honest, we forgot what the original sounded like, but we are loving this new version. Parralox also has video with subtitles written by the group to the fans and viewers.
