The Champagne Socialists - Blue Genes

Blue Genes by The Champagne Socialists

Blue Genes is the first release from The Champagne Socialistsand it’s a flawless statement of intent for this sharpnew band comprised of Jihae Simmons Meek (singer forpop phenoms The Royal We) and Wallace Meek (vocalsand guitar for Bricolage). Coming on like Sparks producedby Joe Meek and Phil Spector, the band has a flairfor echoey three-minute symphonies, marrying classic popmelodies with punk-informed crunch and glam-infused’70s stomp. In other words, classic pop for the ’00s, withnods to Blondie and Shop Assistants along the way.
