Another New Tapeworms Gem

The opening 45 seconds of this song was enough to get me to press repeat on this new Tapeworms single over and over again; it’s just that bruising wall of squall that accompanies many of the new shoegaze acts. But, the way they pull themselves back from the fire is what really captivates me; I’m reminded of that sort of dynamic between the old quietloudquiet approach…works perfectly here. They take a little bit of leniency with the album’s closing moments, but there’s enough force in the opening 2 minutes to have you rushing over to Howlin Banana to pick up their LP, Funtastic.

Catchy Pop Number from Tapeworms

I’m super in love with this new track from French gaze-pop band Tapeworms. Margot Magnieres helps get the song underway with this sort of sly croon, sliding right underneath the bounce of the keys and guitar; you think you’re lost in some magic pop realm, tapping your toes playfully. Suddenly, right at the 1:45 mark, the pedals get pushed down and you’re hit by this barrage of swelling noise that you can’t run from. All the while, Margot’s still there, still bringing you in with her voice. If you dig this style, you’re going to really enjoy listening to the band’s debut LP, Funtastic, out September 25th via Howlin Banana.
