About this listen

 Feeling futuristic? Horny and confused? Are your circuits overloaded with indie electro-clash posturing, fembot fantasies, and the desperate clang of a pop star perpetually trying to reboot her identity to decidedly mixed results? This week, we plug into Bionic, Christina Aguilera’s glittery, glitchy, seemingly cursed attempt at beating Lady Gaga in the art pop culture wars of the early 2010s. Joining us on this cybernetic misadventure is Boston musician and unrivaled electro pop diva Dave of Battlemode, as we unravel the tangled wires of Xtina’s identity crisis, complete with MIA-mimicking monotone choruses, Switch-pop dumbed down dubstep beats, and an inexplicable string of Sia-penned coffeehouse ballads. We dig into the cultural wasteland of 2010, when pop was plastic, femme-powerment was market-tested, and a newly married mom wanted all of us to know how much she wanted you to licky licky yum yum on her Woohoo. Bop, flop, whichever way you slice it....we wish it would STOP. Part of the Pantheon podcast network. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
