Thanks to the French label HVIV, I have come into possession of the promo record by the band DECIBELLES from France. The band is a trio consisting of Sabrina, Fanny, and Emily. The three will be coming to Germany at the end of October as part of a European tour. So far, gigs in Berlin, Nuremberg, Hamburg, and Bremen have been confirmed, and there will likely be more added. So, if anyone has space in their club, feel free to contact the band. Now, let's talk about the music. The three girls deliver a pretty cool, albeit slightly trashy, yet always poppy and punky sound. The classic lineup of guitar, bass, and drums is enhanced with synthesizers, resulting in a kind of electropunk that gets you moving. The three songs on the record are all very melodic and remind a bit of the legendary LASSIE SINGERS as well as STEREO TOTAL. However, the music is more powerful than that of the mentioned bands. I really appreciate that the band places value on melodies and danceability, making their music very accessible. The girls' vocals range from quite normal to screechy, and occasionally feature harmonies. Especially the mix of screechy and delicate singing gives the songs a special something. Even though the three songs only provide a small glimpse of the band, you can tell how good DECIBELLES are. Danceable melodies, occasionally refined with solid punk riffs, combine with the sometimes screechy-high vocals to create a blend that is pleasing and leaves you wanting more.
