If The Cure and Echo and the Bunyymen had been capable of having children, it would have been Bambi, a quintet from London with a knack for wavering melodies rotating around pulsating bass line. Their new single Reap From The Dying Love b/w A Just Nor Fix drops November 17th.
The A-side with its layered vocals and three-part call-and-response guitar is amazing, especially after realising that this band was founded only seven months ago. The live B-side proofs that they can transfer their in-the-studio musical complexity to the stage. The staff at NME are likely to call them Britain's next big thing and they might be right for once.
