¶  At last! They have finally done it. French diamonds Concrete Knives have announced a release date for Be Your Own King, their long-awaited debut album. They are also teasing us with a listen of the first song from the record, Wall Paper (see below).
¶  The relatively low-key indie-pop Caen-based quintet played a few shows in the UK this year and last to promote their super happy, bold and sassy EP, You Can’t Blame The Youth. Talked about non-stop in France – enrapturing crowds with infectious vivacity and groovy rhythms – they proved to be something to look out for. So at The Upcoming we can hardly contain our excitement that they are now releasing a full length album with such a well-produced first track and cool album cover – they seem to have a knack for releasing interesting artwork; check out the EP.
¶  Wall Paper has a more serious, mature sound than the previous EP, though lead singer Morgane Colas’ cheeky, nonchalant attitude is still apparent. Slightly folk-infused, Wall Paper combines simple but loveable guitar melodies with a dreamy, instrumental interlude and an affecting hook that will have you listening over and over – leaving an insatiable craving for the new record.
