The Crimea - 'White Russian Galaxy' (Warner) Released 20/03/06

Second single to their Warners debut album ‘Tragedy Rocks’, ‘White Russian Galaxy’ is a kooky quirky and deliciously infective pop song that shares comparisons to the likes of OK GO mixed in with the latter stages of Travis. Scuzzed up synths and guitar licks that bite, are all the rage with this release yet it keeps its upbeat pop sensibility. It is a simple yet catchy melodic mish-mash that stinks of drunk and confused nights out and running from the cops. They have caught the mischievous attitudes of teens, and the pseudo innocence of streetwise indie and pumped it through your stereo. An electro guitar pop band to look out for, The Crimea are onto something good with ‘White Russian Galaxy’.
