charlie boyer & the voyeurs
CLARIETTA
Heavenly
the sounds of '60s & '70s garage punk goodness are channelled through great songs instilled with untamed, youthful energy.
produced by Edwyn Collins & Seb Lewsley, the retro feel really complements the songwriting throughout this striking debut. on 'i watch you' the band Perfectly channel mid-'70s NYC art punk in the back room of a scuzzed up East End pub, as charlie takes the sounds of one blank generation & blasts them out to another. 'things we be' & i've got a river' are steeped in velvets-esque quirky, chugging garage pop while 'be glamorous' exemplifies the organ powered drive that underpins their freshest numbers. "Clarietta is no routine homage, more a gripping twist on a timeless classic" 8/10 - mojo.
