I HEART REVOLUTION (AND HEARTS REVOLUTION)

-

These guys probably the best discovery arising out of the NME Future 50 feature:

Hearts Revolution myspace.

Some shallow fashionistic ravery here and there, but overall a laudably fractured and exhilaratingly distorted dance-pop, recalling all kinds of goofy, girly indie of yore (this compounded by the classic alt-rock referencing lyrics, now becoming pretty voguish, cf. Les Campesinos, Let’s Wrestle etc - and hopefully indicative of a revival of old-school indie ethics going beyond mere quirky nostalgia).

‘Digital Suicide’ (both myspace versions) - just lovely.
