Monde Yeux Minterview

April 17th, 2008

Happened to happen upon magnificently hip Stockholm sixpiece Monde Yeux, in Grafton St the other day. The lads were making such a fine racket I had to grab a mini-interview. Like a more coherent Making Dens, Monde Yeux’s debut album, Naked Girls, written over a summer in Dublin, is a hodge podge of Frames like post Folk, Adam Greenesque Chanteuse, and melodic ColdWar Kids style indie. Definitely worth a listen. Considering the Depp like face beauty of the bands lead singer, Jack, merely the prettiest of a band rivalling a youthful Jam for statusquery; and the bands catchy electro-folk sensibility, Monde Yeux may well be the Swedish Beirut. Deal with it.
