We Are Wolves came out with their new album La Mort Pop Club in late February but I failed to talk about it. I happened to come across the album in the pile again and started listening to it in the summer mix. It's one really underrated album. Not sure how this one slipped past the early year list of cool new albums. Their songs can feel so epic even though the running time of the tracks is only a few minutes. Songs like "Sun" and "We Are Made of Fire" belong in film trailers. "Sun" has such a great hook I think I listened to it a dozen times in one day just to get my head around it's epic feel.
There's just a sense of cool to La Mort Pop Club that's hard to explain. It's hard to even nail down what they sound like. At times they remind me of Primal Scream and at other times they even blend a bit of the kinetic energy of bands like The Hives. "Snake In The Sand" is the only song that they currently have a video for but take my word for it this album is a must buy. Go to bandcamp and check out the entire album for yourselves.
