Posted on 09-Mar-2011

So somehow Black Carousel made its way to France and got reviewed in FRENCH ROLLING STONE!! No one knows how this happened but we just got it sent through from the Xavier Bonnet the journalist. Here it is in French for those who can read it...

 Skybombers

 (4)

 Black Carousel

 FUR/MGM (Import Australie)

Power-pop aussie virevoltante !

Les injustices dans l’histoire du rock sont légion. Rien d’illogique à ce que le rock australien en ait connu son lot, avec pour meilleure illustration You Am I, gang de Sydney dont les albums pop fruités à souhait n’avaient fait le bonheur que de quelques happy few seulement. D’évidence, à quelque sept cents kilomètres de là (Melbourne), ces quatre Skybombers y ont été biberonnés. Repérée par Albert Productions (qui avaient mis en son temps le pied à l’étrier à un certain… AC/DC), la bande des quatre entend bien secouer la planète avec un second album impressionnant de maîtrise et de savoir-faire, enquillant les power-pop songs comme autant de hits imparables, rappelant tour à tour Nada Surf, Cheap Trick ou Oasis. Mélodies, riffs catchy, tout y est. De la bombe, baby!

And with Google's translating services...
