Prototypes - Tir Aux Pigeons
Prototypes are my new favourite band for this week and this week only. I somehow managed to miss their
album last year (maybe that's because it wasn't released over here 'til this year). What's going on with French music, that must be, like, 4 good bands of Gallic descent I've counted now. My favourite tracks from the album are
Tir Aux Pigeons and
who's Gonna Sing.
I also quite like
The Grates' new album, they've decided to be a bit more tuneful than their EPs, which makes listening to a whole album of it a whole lot easier.
Sukkafish is so weird it's cool, with it's bluegrass verses and commercial rock chorus bit. (While I'm at it, what's with all the good Australian music?!)
Which isn't to say I don't like a bit of noise, as you well know, courtesy of
Mika Miko this time round who manage to do a very convincing 'Le Tigre band practice circa 1997' with
The Dress.
Honorable mention goes out to
Pardom My Freedom for scoring 2 new
Uffie tracks -
Hot Chick being my preference on this occasion. She's a funny little thing isn't she.
