i think the album is about technology, consumerism + materialism, how city life is consumed by it. Most of the titles reflect that: 17, blue jeans, black plastic, cracked lcd. Light + Magic reflects how we rely on technology at the flick of a switch, as if it's magic. Ladytron also seem to add a little nature for ironic effect, eg. the sound of ringtones stranded in the sand.
