I can't believe these guys are bringing out a new album. Their new material certainly doesn't sound like their awesome songs from the 80's. You can listen to their new album here at Billboard page
Lee, please email me. I emailed you last Sunday and am waiting on a response.
Hi Michael
I am sorry mate, i didn't know you sent me one. It didn't arrive in my inbox, but I will go and check my spam. It shouldn't be in there as I have got all your other emails just fine.

I've just gotten around to listening to their album now. There were a couple of tracks which still sounded like the old Wang Chung, such as Driving. London Orbital was also an OK track and most of them have the Wang Chung backbeat. I wouldn't have recognized them without knowing who they were but it is not a bad album, the remix of Dance Hall Days is fair but they could have been more experimental with it.
There were no standout new tracks like they had in the mid eighties with Don't Let Go, Dance Hall Days, Everybody Have Fun Tonight, Let's Go etc but it's a good effort.
I remember about 1983 they were signed to Geffen Records when Geffen had to decide between Wang Chung and Melbourne's Dear Enemy who had just released Computer One. Wonder if Dear Enemy would have made a bigger impact both here and in the US if they had signed with Geffen.
