Ones to Watch - Demontré

Psychedelic shoegazing guitar, post-punk rhythm section, sharp, concrete bass? Just three things that spring to mind when listening to this band. Their debut ep MASCULIN/FÉMININ is out now featuring seven tracks of shimmering yet solid sound. Vocal melodies float through each song, amongst ambient sounds that weave in and out of spaces in the tracks. The atmosphere and the tension builds and then slackens, from the catapulting segue of 'Vale of Health' to the low-key, piano-led, somewhat dubiously titled 'The Lion King'. With any luck you'll leave satisfied, because Demontré appear finally to have fulfilled their potential.
