Yves Klein Blue
It’s been a long while since a band from Queensland impressed as much as Yves Klein Blues (named after French Dada artist Yves Klein and his wonderful piece from the 50’s “Blue - but I digress). Smart arse name aside this is band that knows how to play hard, have a listen to “Silence Is Distance” over at http://www.myspace.com/yveskleinbluemusic. They certainly impress.
But the real find was “Getting Wise”, this puppy is seriously slick. I am in awe of the clever lyrics and the phrasing. It sounds so casually thrown away as a performance, but damn it’s slick. And then there is the rest of the production, polished? This is so shiny bright that you will need shades to listen to it. The organ provides just the perfect counterpoint to the understated guitars.
Am I gushing? You bet but they are worth it. They have a great rep as a live act and the release of the new CD will confirm them as a great recording act.
Here is “Getting Wise”
