Wonder Villains: Ferrari Review

No Responses »

Jan 272012

Ferrari is the follow up to Wonder Villain’s debut Zola. Instead of tackling the world of soccer, this time WVs go for fast cars and this track has rapidly won me over, perhaps even more than Zola did.

The sickenly talented foursome from Derry have adapted a pop indie sound that is destined to win fans over. Uptempo with a driving synth bass line, this song will surely get the crowd going at many festivals this Summer. It’s catchy, quirky electro indie pop, glorious and delightful.. This is out on February 17th, I want to know when the album’s due.

Jan 062012

Parisien based Irish duo, Carosel revealed a new track from their forthcoming album at an intimate gig in the world famous Shakespeare & Co. in Paris. It’s more than just a bookshop with the proprietors providing artist’s space within the building. The song ‘Je Reviens Vers Toi’ (Come Back To You for our non francophiles), is the first time the pair have performed in the language of their adopted land.
