another french return


This post is a change of pace for the week and with the new release of Phoenix's new album 'Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix' (Produced by Philippe Zdar AKA Cassius) is the groups fourth album and includes bangers such as the infamous '1901'. The dudes if you have not heard are a seemingly retro indie band that chills out melodic riffs in unison with Thomas Mars' soothing vocals. These alternate rockers were from the very seen that saw the success of Air and Daft Punk.

The second single from the album Lisztomania refers to the pianist (when read loudly and quickly takes a whole new meaning)--- Frank Liszt who was sooo damn good he had a standing house of women screaming at him - sort of like today's Russell Brand. Anyways there is the history so enjoy these two tracks plus arguably there all time best track
PEACE!!
