Plastiscines – Barcelona

If you’re not familiar with the Parisian rock chicks that are Plastiscines then strap yourselves in and prepare to go on an exciting musical journey.….

This single is the first time the girls have written their songs in English as opposed to French, not an easy task I’m sure you’ll agree, but the result of which is sounding extremely fresh and sultry at a time when we are being bombarded by much of a muchness in terms of musical output from female groups.

The all-girl rock band, made up of Katty on vocals, Marine on guitar, Anais on drums and Louise on bass, have released their second single, ‘Barcelona’, which starts out with great, punky hard beats – a totally memorable impact. Although this particular track evaporates quite quickly into a sound extremely reminiscent of many other girl groups gracing our stages (Girls Aloud etc), the French foursome add punchy kicks and a splice of husky, honey-dipped tones to ensure their originality stands them apart. And indeed it does, the track is fun, upbeat and bound to have you begging for more.

‘Barcelona’, is the first single from Plastiscines album About Love which is due out 2010 and set for big things. Having had their first interntional hit whilst still in high-school, appearing on Gossip Girl and supporting Little Boots these spunky four are clearly totally rocking-it!
