We Say...
Think you’ve got the French Kicks pegged? Listen to the first ten seconds of their eMusic exclusive EP, Roller. A lazy drum machine? A Casio stolen from Lionel Richie’s backseat? This isn’t your Walkmen-aping hipster friends. This is lover’s rock. If “Roller” is for getting down, “A Delicate Hang” is the post-coital daydream. Featuring gossamer guitar licks and the sort of endearing harmonies that only a confidently untrained vocalist can deliver, it would’ve fit snugly as the closer to the upbeat-to-a-fault Two Thousand. “A Little Death, A Little Rebirth” sees the group regain some of their swagger (the beat swings, the guitar steadies Nick Stumpf’s ever-warbly vocal), but the shaggy arrangement once again gives them away: Roller is the Kicks at their loosest — something they’d do well to indulge in far more often.
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
Rolling Stone
