The Sapphics are from Limoges in France and their line up features Clement (lead vocals), Tom (lead guitar), Lucas (rhythm guitar), Guillaume (bass) and Benoit (drums). They mix elements of garage, punk, surf and rock to produce a sound influenced by the Californian scene that's led them to be compared to artists such as Ty Segall and Fidlar. They formed in 2014 and are currently preparing to self release their debut album Camel Toes. It'll be available on vinyl and cd on 1st December and you can find details here : https://thesapphics.bandcamp.com/
The album contains 11 tracks of fuzzed up rock riffing. Don't visit the album expecting your basic 3 chord angry punk rock rants, this is a more laid back, spaced out adventurous affair (though that's not to say it doesn't have plenty of pulse pounding up tempo moments). Imagine The White Stripes mixed with Iggy Pop, even better just listen to the song that's posted below (which, showing their versatility, doesn't sound like either The White Stripes or Iggy Pop!).
This is Boredom Queen....
