Fotomatic - Take A Ride

  


  Today's song is the flip side of a debut single which was titled Bipolarity and was released in April of last year for Record Store Day in France. It's by Fotomatic, a power pop / post-punk trio with a line up of Laura, Guillaume & Max. As far as I'm aware it's their only release (thus far). 

  If you want to check out the video they released for the A side then click here :  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfhku9UDBBg

   Even catchier is their cover of a song that was originally recorded in 1978 by Les Lous, a Paris band who supported The Clash's on their 1977 Get Out Of Control tour (supposedly it was never actually released and only appeared in a 1979 French punk movie titled La Brune et Moi). You can hear their version here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgmejqJo3-A

  Hopefully we'll hear more from Fotomatic soon. A power pop delight, this is Take A Ride...
