Music journalists have classified Ladytron as electroclash, and as is typical for that genre, live performances include live guitars and a drummer along with the electronics. Despite their classification, they are notable for not using sampling on their records or in their shows, instead playing everything live using synthesizers. Ladytron's lyrics are of a somewhat obscure nature, mostly dominated by banal images and snippets of everyday life, and sometimes written in Bulgarian by Bulgarian bandmember Mira Aroyo. Albums so far have focused on a balance between pop structures and a retro sound, and some more experimental leanings.
