Description
Highly anticipated debut album from Paris based French Boutik, is a revolutionary reference not only to the band’s assertive “pop moderniste” style. But what is “pop moderniste” you’ll ask?! Well as usual it is difficult to describe: As Shindig Magazine puts it: “They call it Pop Moderniste. I call it bloody marvellous.” To put it straight I would descibe it as an unique combination of influences ranging from 60s standards like Dutronc and the Kinks, to early punk and powerpop from XTC and the Jam, but with all the French Boutik trademarks : Unusual but catchy melodies, sharp French and English lyrics, strong harmonies, chiming and slightly psychedelic guitar and assertive bass and drums, all underscored with smooth Wurlitzer and Hammond organ sounds courtesy of guest Popincourt.
