Album: Chaos and a Dancing Star by Marc Almond (2020)
Genre: New Wave | Style: Britpop | Mood: Excitable
Record Label: Strike Force Entertainment
Format: Album

Description: In his personal lexicon, pop chameleon Marc Almond seems to place special meaning on the word "star"; Chaos and a Dancing Star marks the fourth time he's employed it in an album title (alongside 1988's The Stars We Are, 1996's Fantastic Star, and 2007's Stardom Road). The thread that binds these outings to one another and Chaos and a Dancing Star is that all illuminate Almond's expansive view of pop and were deliberately aimed at the charts.
