Oppenheimer - Look Up

Look Up by Oppenheimer

4...according to our on Thu 01 May, 2008.

Oppenheimer release a new 7" on Fantastic Plastic called 'Look Up'. Their album came out a while back on Smalltown America but Fantastic Plastic picked it up and if you ignored the reissue and you're not sure then maybe this 7" is a fun place to start. Hugely energetic indie rock which reminds me Ash when Charlotte Hatherley was involved. Well limited this one apparently 'n all...

‘Look Up’ / ‘The Never Never’ is a double A-side taken from Oppenheimer’s forthcoming new album.   ‘The Never Never’ features guest vocalist Matt Caughtran from US band The Bronx.
Oppenheimer’s music was recently featured on US comedy dramas ‘Ugly Betty’ and ‘Gossip Girl’.   The band have recently shared stages with names like Tilly and The Wall, Architecture In Helsinki, Regina Spektor, Hot Chip and supported They Might Be Giants on a giant 50 date stateside tour.
“Like a fizzing flying saucer scanning Planet Haribo” – NME. "A sumptuous synth-pop experience, fantastic fuzzy noise"  - Rocksound. "Irresistibly beautiful melodies”  - The Sun (4/5). "This is pop music at its most sublime, the soundtrack to a neon fantasy world where everything is shiny, it's gorgeous, gorgeous music that has universal appeal”  - Music OMH. "Oppenheimer songs have the feel of summers gone by, of skinny-dips and moonlight gallivants and sprinkler jumps and first crushes" – Alternative Ulster. “Pop disco for electro punks” – Drowned In Sound.
Available as limited edition (500 copies only) white vinyl 7” in numbered sleeves.
