Oh, Francoise

Finnish oddities Le Corps Mince de Francoise came to my attention earlier this year as a reult of The Guardian's wonderful 'New Band of the Day' feature.

It seems the experimental pop purveyors have now caught the attention of super-cool French label Kitsuné, who are releasing a new track 'Something Golden' in December.

The track is every bit as zany and colourful as the trio's earlier material but, thankfully, sees them deviating from the seemingly CSS-influenced territory that would have worked a treat back in 2007 but mightn't get them noticed today.



Yum.

Back in third year of DCU, I was obsessed with CSS and more or less played their self-titled debut album on loop. Their follow-up album 'Donkey', released last year, was a big disappointment though.

Finnish trio Le Corps Mince De Françoise's tunes are exactly what I hoped 'Donkey' would sound like. I'd recommend checking out their tracks 'Rayban Glasses' and 'Cool and Bored' but my favourite track is probably 'Bitch of the Bitches', which sounds like an update of CSS's 'Meeting Paris Hilton'.
