Reviews: Attack of the EPs

The theme for these reviews are Singles and EPs. Reviewing singles and especially 1-track songs are fast and easy, because obviously I'm not vested in hours listening to a full length album.

Saint Bernadette - Hard to Believe Saint Bernadette - I Wanna Tell You Something... Feb 23, 2008 at 9:17 AM W♥M favorites Saint Bernadette have a new EP called I Wanna Tell You Something... to be released March 17th (although the street date announced on their myspace is closer to March 4th). Please refer to my original article to read about the band. It looks like they (and EVERY other band!) are going to be playing at SXSW this year as well as a few unconfirmed dates.

There's really not a whole lot to write about when you're just given one song to listen to. The good news is that if you like old The Black Crowes, this song sounds exactly like what they sounded like on their quadtriple southern blues/rock album, Shake Your Moneymaker - which is not a bad thing at all if you dislike change.

Télépathique - Love and Lust Télépathique Feb 24, 2008 at 12:45 PM Télépathique are a dance groove/big beat/DJ duo consisting of Mylene (who does all the vocals) and Erico Theobaldo (who handles all the drums, turntables, and various programming), based out of São Paulo, Brazil. I believe they are already a big hit throughout Europe and their hometown with their album Last Time on Earth (2006), but Americans will finally hear about them through their debut North American single: Love & Lust to be release March 18 on The Control Group.

Looking at her myspace, I thought she is a one-woman folk singer, but this EP has a full backing band of Angelo Vermuelen (guitars), Henrik Linde (bass), Chris Steele (drums), Brent Arnold (cello), and Dan Trollinger (piano).

Delorentos - Any Other Way Delorentos Feb 24, 2008 at 10:16 PM Delorentos are a rock band from Dublin, Ireland. It looks like they've released at least six singles/EPs and one debut album (In Love With Detail, 20 April 2007). They were kind enough to provided me with one song from their Basis of Everything EP. The song starts off really slow and quiet, but when it picks up (exactly at the 1 minute mark), it's pretty good. I definitely like the energy and the guitar work on the later half of the song.

His debut album is called Glue (which I think was released in 2007), which I was only offered a few songs his website. Although he's Italian, he did grow up in London, so his songs only have a British accent. Between the four songs I have, I think with its jangly acoustic guitars, I liked "Kids" the best.
