Soo I heard about these guys, Le Man Avec Les Lunettes, through Chris (of course) and they're really pretty cool. They have an odd background though. The guys in the band are Italian with a French band name singing in English. It all sounds so odd until you hear it. The songs are beautiful, think the Beach Boys meet Sigur Ros. I usually don't go in for Sigur Ros, but these songs are a little more upbeat and shorter, too. Their website doesn't give much information about them, so I assume they want to stay a little myserious or something. They have an EP that you can buy, but for some reason it says it's the Swedish edition? Too many nationalities going on here! Also, I don't know the names of these tracks but they are both worth your time.

Le Man Avec Les Lunettes is, in their own words, "an Italian project, that have a French name and that sings in English". They claim to be influenced by "Belle & Sebastian, Blur, Beatles, Beach Boys", and probably some other bands that start with B. The name of this track may or may not be "Sybil Vane", but either way it's pretty damn good!

Le Man Avec Les Lunettes are an "Italian project, that have a French name and that sings in English." It's like they're the league of nations all wrapped up into one band. In addition to being multicultural, they also write some pretty darn good music. In general, I guess it's like if the Olivia Tremor Control's instrumentation were joined with Of Montreal's songwriting.

Hace poco recibí la recomendación (gracias Paolo!) de esta banda italiana, de nombre francés y con vocales en inglés, y la verdad que la sorpresa ha sido muy grata. Lo más sorprendente de esta banda es, sin dudas, su aparición en el cartel del festival Emmaboda 2005. Su primer EP, "Saturate it, Then Reverse!" es justo el reflejo de los gustos de este dúo formado por Fabio B. y Ale P., donde la influencia del psychPOP sesentero y el indiepop actual de bandas tipo Belle & Sebastian, se combinan para bonitas canciones. Escúchenlos!
