Moulettes a go go in Album Review Round Up!
Moulettes release their self titled debut album next week and have been receiving much coverage from the music press, so much so that we decided to give you a little round up of the most recent excellent reviews that have come their way...
First up comes a review from the brilliantly titled website Punk Rock Ist Nicht Tot who have given the band a stirring write up and scored the album 4/5!
"...a geniunely unique and exciting sound, they sound like the result of an unspeakably horrific unholy union between Gogol Bordello, Nick Cave, Bellowhead, and the Stray Cats but without the punk element, not pissed and with two female singers with stunning voices! - Punk Rock Ist Nicht Tot

Just Press Play have been equally effusive in their praise for what has been described as the most ambitious "folk" album of the year. With scores given out of 10 for various facets of the album, the website scored the band 10/10 for Originality and 9/10 for Vocals, with an overall aggregate score of 8/10!
"With splendid vocal harmonization, great songwriting and a flat out wildly original concept, the Moulettes have given us what may be the best debut of 2010." - Just Press Play

Finally, Noripcord complete a trio of rip roaring reviews for the bands debut album, with another impressive article complementing the highly original nature of the record. The website settled on a score of 7/10 which is not too shabby...
"They even make world music cool, as with Talisman, which is brimming with sultry folklorico passion, a style that marries wonderfully with the free-form gypsy groove that moves like an undercurrent throughout." - Noripcord
Read the full article on the Noripcord website.
If all that wasn't enough Moulettes styled goodness for you, The Line of Best Fit have featured the brand new video for the track "Devil of Mine" which you can watch HERE.
The album is out to buy on 16th August.
