Free Music Review: Best of 2008: Even better than "Two Thousand"
Hit: 5 Stars
I had the chance of seeing French Kicks live a couple of years ago. I thought their album Two Thousand released in 2006 was hard to beat. Yet I have been pleased to find that "Swimming" does just that. Their sound is more solid and there are tracks from end to end (with "New Man" being my favorite, hands down) that confirm this New York-based post-punk inspired act as one of the great bands around these days.
Swimming Poster
They were never as trendy as the Strokes or the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, but nonetheless, New York City's French Kicks were a mainstay of the early 2000s Big Apple rock renaissance. Originally known for being the band with a singing drummer, the French Kicks underwent several line-up changes that led to drummer Nick Stumpf taking over traditional frontman duties.One listen to their sharp, hip mod-pop is proof that the boys did just fine for themselves.Alternative Rock Music CDs
