1.
Who
are they?
Bastille are a popular, and commercially successful, indie electro-pop band from London, England. They have been playing together since 2010 and both of their albums have been U.K. number ones and sold more than six million worldwide. Good Grief (June'16) was the lead single from their second album Wild World (Sept'16).
2. What kind of tune are they peddling?
Good Grief is sweet, catchy-as-fuck, pop with backing falsetto vocals, a jaunty beat, and juxtaposed with maudlin lyrics. Hard to hate.
3. Who do Bastille sound like?
Imagine Dragons, Two Door Cinema Club and Depeche Mode.
4. What have the press said about Good Grief?
“Catchy
enough” – A Bit Of Pop Music.
“Bubbly
tune” – AXS.
“One
of the hits of the year” – DIY.
5. Which bands have influenced Bastille?
The Smiths, Regina Spektor, Simon and Garfunkel and Bat For Lashes.
6. Why should I give Good Grief a listen?
Because you like well-crafted pop songs, choruses with more than one hook, and obvious contrasts.
7. What are Bastille's best songs?
Good Grief and Pompeii.
8. Any more words?
The singer Dan Smith is a big Twin Peaks fan.
The Great Communicators are an indie post-rock band from Amsterdam, Netherlands. They have been making music since 2012 and sound like Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs, The Bombay Bicycle Club and Autolux. They are influenced by bands like The Mars Volta, Broken Social Scene and Blood Red Shoes. From their debut album Lucky Horse (Sept'16) came two phenomenal minutes of indie; Old Car. The song is like the title; it might not be love at first sight but you'll become slowly endeared with it until you never want to part.
