Madcap cartoony Eurofolk Pop… Featuring disco beats, clinky piano solos and drumming straight from a wind up monkey
What to say about an album that features more than just a little bit of Gallic psychosis and a great big heap of Scandinavian eccentricity?
FRENCH FOR CARTRIDGE are a mental band who hop, skip and jump between styles like an Olympian jack of all trades hopped off his tits on ecstacy and ‘Ludes… It’s a frenetic, at times disjointed and thoroughly bonkers listen…
I’m not sure if I liked it, judging on the amount of times I have had to re-write this review… But what I can tell you is that I am more than intrigued enough to warrant future listens and I would definitely pass it on to friends…
Like is a strong word… But I certainly appreciated the mental little buggers.
Recommended if you fancy a challenge.
If you like your pop vanilla and chart-worthy – However – steer clear…
You have been warned.
