| Copywrite - Philophobia |
Release Date: Out Now
I like to think I have pretty
eclectic tastes and, as such, I tend to find musical kinship in the slivers of
the Venn diagram that I share with other people. Then there comes a band like
Australian combo Copywrite who state their influences on Facebook (and I'm not
cherry picking here, this is the full list) as Radiohead, Talking Heads, Queens
Of The Stoneage, Swans, Massive Attack, Interpol, Tool, Bjork, Silverchair,
First Aid Kit and Kimbra. I know, right? Amazeballs doesn't even cover it. I
got the same feeling the first time I saw a girl laughing at Family Guy and
realised it wasn't just a guy thing. So, I've already got a bit of a band crush
on Copywrite and I haven't heard a note yet. Dangerous. This, the band's debut
single 'Philophobia', is about the fear of falling in love and is an
endearingly lo-fi indie number with skin-of-the-teeth guitar picking and dusky, sultry vocals
courtesy of the Justine Frischmann-esque vocals of Luna. The influences are all
in there from QOTSAs fuck you cool to the down tempo beauty of Massive Attack
and the seductive style of Kimbra. Sure it's raw and unpolished but the beauty
shines through and I can't help but feel that there is more to come from the
platform these guys have built themselves. Strong stuff for a debut.
