If you're UK pop duo La Roux, and your name has been spilling out of Internet tastemakers' mouths for several months, the pressure to complete an album must be a tangible force in your life. So, for better or worse, La Roux hasn't wasted any time in delivering their self-titled debut to the blogging, clamoring masses. However, Elly Jackson and Ben Langmaid's music is entirely suffused with hot-blooded anticipation and bright, glaring sentiment, so is there any reason for them to wait?
