Following their acclaimed second album Born into Flame in 2012 and last year’s double AA side Plastic Eyeballs/On The Moon, Glasgow’s premier fuzz-pop noise terrorists St Deluxe are now armed with a streamlined 3 piece line up and a renewed sense of urgency and momentum. They have distilled their sound to deliver the most definitive and direct take on their unapologetic, viscerally engaged indie-rock yet. With new material to follow in 2015, catch them live for the real deal… noisy guitar mangling hiding pure pop thrills… fuzz, volume, energy and melody will combine to blow your bloody socks off.
Some Critical Quotes:
‘A CONTENDER for Scotland’s hottest new act are this Glasgow band. New single New Wave Stars is a blistering attack of buzz-saw guitars, rib-rattling bass and distorted vocals. It’s like Teenage Fanclub with their fingers in a plug socket’ (Daily Record)
‘Classic Scottish guitar rock with a yelping glam twist, St Deluxe’s melodious noise is out of the same top drawer as Joe McAlinden’s Superstar and the mighty Teenage Fanclub. A big hug of guitar chords that sweeps you off your feet, 4 out of 5 Stars’ (Scotland on Sunday)
‘Glasgow four-piece St Deluxe channel the fuzzed-up ghosts of Sebadoh, My Bloody Valentine and early Teenage Fanclub, with their eponymous debut album a sweet blend of plaintive melodies and old-school overdriven antics’ (The List)
‘St Deluxe are utterly essential in the ‘09. New Wave Stars, it is dipped in the Creation Records legacy of chemical pop imbalance’ (Too Cool To Die – Alan McGee’s new Blog)
