2011 release from this band led by former Irene member Tobias Isaksson. On the surface, Azure Blue is a sparkling wave that flows relatively unconcerned into a distant sunset, but beneath that it is riddled with references. Together with producer pseudonym Midnight Ruler, Tobias has created a modern yet timeless record with analog drum machines, vintage synths, and airy arrangements. Rule of Thirds shamelessly flirts with AOR, New Wave and New Romantic in a way that takes New Order, the Go-Betweens, and Roxy Music's Avalon album on a journey to 2012.
