Scars

Scars is the fifth studio album by British electronic dance music duo Basement Jaxx, released on 21 September 2009. It was preceded by the first single "Raindrops", released on 21 June, while the second single, "Feelings Gone", was also released in the United Kingdom on 21 September. The track "Twerk" features lyrics adapted from Michael Sembello's song "Maniac". In an interview, Felix Buxton stated that the album Scars were all the things that the band had been through emotionally and physically. Felix told Rolling Stone Australia they named the album 'Scars' after he was mugged for his bicycle in Brixton, London in 2008. He revealed: "I wasn't badly hurt but it scared me. It's probably one of the scariest moments of my life. Scars are the things that stay with you and that incident definitely gave me one."
