la bronze

Yet another bandcamp act referencing themselves in their debut album and once again proving that there's some great new music out there. I can't seem to find too much about them at present other than the briefest of bio's on Bandcamp. They are fronted by the stunning Nadine, hail from Montreal and are playing a number of gigs around Quebec soon. They play an earnest and accomplished pop and manage to avoid the twee MOR rather well. It's mainly a classic guitar/drum arrangement but a few of the slower tracks feature piano as well. Nadine's voice is beautifully husky and it works so well in her native Canadian French. The guitars are a little too crunching at times and almost seem to be begging for some air grabs but overall they compliment the band well. Overall, it is a very good album and reminiscent of No Doubt's early work.
