Friends And Lovers

Following the release of 'Total Exposure' the fiery Argentinian grrl group Las Kellies return with new album 'Friends & Lovers'. Inflected new wave post-punk blends garage-psych with infectiously deft dance beats and melodic pop. 'Friends & Lovers' fuzzed-up gems sees them move away from the heavier dub sounds of their last record instead sinking their teeth into a groove like Thee Oh Sees with the spirit of ESG and Delta 5. Rupturing with dance floor classics like 'Sugar Beat' and 'I Don't Care', they effortlessly move into sun-soaked psych-pop tunes ('Summer Breeze', 'Sun Goes Down') with slow grooving honeyed tones, shimmering guitars and propulsive percussion. Produced by Iván Diaz Mathé (credits include Lee "Scratch" Perry & Mad Professor), who's worked on their previous records.
