avant demain by Turquoise
Love love love the sweetly menacing synth pop sound of new album avant demain by Belgium’s Turquoise.
I don’t understand a lick of French, but it’s singed throughout with that gothy newwave gaze that Turquoise is so good at.
Fans will recognized newly polished versions of “tumulte”, “lumio” and “voix off”. Sarah Boom’s gorgeous voice especially shines on slower numbers “nouvelles images” and “avant demain”. Her soothingly cool vocals are a stark contrast to the incredible energy she emits on stage when the band plays live.
Double Mixte and Vive La Fête come to mind while listening, but different of course… give Turquoise a spin - no fishnets or vinyl catsuits required. meow.
Sexy coloured vinyl edition of avant demain available on Bandcamp.
