***Paris, France’s CHEVEU’s newest release 1000 shows a much more polished and slicker sound than their previous releases, portraying the bands growth and adventurous, other-worldly style. That’s not to say it doesn’t sound like a Cheveu album, which is usually pretty damned difficult to pinpoint anyhow. Expect a whole new foray of sounds that include full horn arrangements, crazy RUN DMC-style beats, and the usual flurry of noisy electronics and Rolling Stones-type blues riffs. Limited to only 1,000 copies on black vinyl in the US and Canada, co-released by Kill Shaman in the US/Canada and Born Bad in Europe. Amazing cover art made out of fruit stickers and other fun stuff. Love it.
LP $17.25
