Fenech-Soler Literally Encourages Us To Fight Our "Demons" Off

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Saturday, January 22, 2011

Another incredible video from the untouchable Fenech-Soler for their latest sultry single, "Demons," the second single to be released from the British electro-pop quartet's self-titled debut album. The newcomer of the year is one of Tracasseur's faves of 2010. They are known to many dancefloor lovers for their punchy synthpop tunes, and is now gear up for 2011 ubiquity. This upbeat, catchy electro-pop jam is a ball of energy, packed with killer melodies and hooks, massive synths and an irresistibly dancey beat.
In the same vein as their previous singles, "Demons" is another fine example of the Fenech-Soler blend; infectious synth-ridden dance-pop following swiftly in the footsteps of the likes of Friendly Fires, Calvin Harris, Frankmusik and so on. "Demons" is a great, energetic song that puts me in a great mood, and literally encourages me to fight my demons off. With a pounding dance beat, and synth piano and effects over front man Ben Duffy's melodic voice and lyrics, the song is as addicting as crack, and a typically immediate tale of late night confusion and self doubt, propelled with urgent dance floor beats.
Fenech-Soler are proving their continued worth with the latest single "Demons." Again they dazzle us with some great indie electro popin' off and go further to widen the band wagon. The Casper Balslev-directed new video, shot in Copenhagen is a performance video made epic by the use of lighting, colors, smoke, wind, slow-motion and all-round tremendous photography. It's a gorgeous-looking video that hotbed of great image-making. The video is also an excellent pop video triumvirate if there was one, though perhaps not quite on par with Bright Light Bright Light's use of wind machines, triangle heads and big spotlights. Still, there's always the next single of which there will be many because Fenech-Soler are jolly listenable.
Borne of a true faith in pop and fermented in the spirit of self-determination, Fenech-Soler's radio-friendly nous and festival verve has delivered an explosive debut. I can't encourage other means of getting the music, but if you are a pirate, I would definitely recommend the entire album. They know how to intertwine lush synth melodies and explosions of rhythms to create glistening pop songs. Their house-infused, synth-fueled electro pop with a lots of blue. green and purple filters, a smoke and wind machines and some fab tune-age of course. Though most of them only vary slightly from the others, the nine remixes circulated alongside the original mix of "Demons" make the four-piece's track suitable for many club DJ's alongside their radio-friendly, synth-pop original.
