FEATURE ALBUM
Alpine – Yuck
[Ivy League/Mushroom]
The Melbourne six-piece's debut LP A Is For Alpine may have lead to an iTunes award, a support slot with Grouplove and a spot on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, but Yuck sets the tone for a new era of Alpine.
While cheeky, brass-pop tracks like Heartlove, Damn Baby and Hands butter you up with greedy hi-hat cymbals and refrained joint vocals, it's lead single Foolish that stands at the forefront. Thankfully, the track's just been serviced to radio this week so we'll be hearing a lot more of it.
