Los Campesinos! - International Tweexcore Underground (Wichita)
UK release date: 22 October 2007
Cardiff based Los Campesinos! make the sort of rumbunctious indie pop that slaps you in the face and reminds you that some things are worth getting out of bed for in the morning - things like Los Campesinos! for example.
Boasting a string arrangement that DeVotchKa would be happy with, The International Tweexcore Underground is imbued with an infectious optimism and sounds like a stew of Test Icicles, Arcade Fire, The Moldy Peaches and Kate Nash being brought to a feisty boil.
Los Campesinos! got busy recently with recording their debut album, and I, for one, can't wait. They will then tour, and it is with songs like this that the band will take audiences by storm and cement their growing reputation as a force to be reckoned with.
