| Waterbodies - What The French Call "Les Incompetents" |
So, apart from being a cult indie
band from London, it turns out that Les Incompetents is also what the French
speaking world calls Home Alone, the film that gave us Macaulay Culkin. Whether
that warrants a whole song or not is up for debate but Canadian rockers
Waterbodies make some fairly strong points in favour. 'What The French Call
"Les Incompetents"' begins with a sleazy, leather-clad guitar riff
that brings the likes of Boss Hogg and Lou Reed to mind before the lazy,
sneering vocals join in to tell you just how much they don't care. The backing
vocals howl, the drums pound and boy does that bass guitar growl like a
tormented beast in a dark basement. This is not a tune for the faint hearted
but it is a tune for those who like their rock'n'roll with a healthy dose of
sex appeal and whisky on its breath. Frankly, if Culkin had just played this
tune at loud volumes when the robbers tried to break in they would have known
not to mess with him. And that should tell you all you need to know really.
