European Garage Festival regulars Les BOF! finally get round to releasing their long awaited debut album. This Edinburgh based quartet stomp through an almost entirely self-penned set of French language garage punk rave-ups throwing in couple of Les Miserables and Les Sunlights covers to boot. ‘Nous Sommes . . . Les BOF!’features the same set which sent audiences ape-shit wild from Oslo to Parma and London to Berlin over the past three years, many at international festivals sharing a stage with the likes of Billy Childish, The Masonics and The Downliners Sect.
Unhappy with current recording studio situation in UK the band set about building their own studio to record the album, which might explain why it has taken so long to finish. The stunning results were well worth the wait I’m sure you’ll agree!
The band feature suave singer Laurent Mombel, Marseilles' original ‘Rock & Roll Vandal’ and guitarist Angus McPake, currently playing guitar and organ with The Thanes and also 12 string with legendary reformed Glasgow 60s beat group The Poets.
‘Nous Sommes . . . Les BOF!’ is 14 ‘formidable’ killer tracks of storming yé-yé and out-and-out primitive rock & roll.
Fancy some cool French 60’s beat? Aah! Mes amis, don’t look no further!!!
