The Plasticines are an all-girl French outfit and look like they just stepped out of a fashion magazine. Hey, I already gave you three good reasons to like this band… why are you still reading? Oh, you’re one of those people who actually want to know what they sound like?
“About Love” is filled with songs that could’ve been written by The Libertines messing around with Ramones songs after just having seen a documentary about Françoise Hardy that really impressed them. Whether these chicks are coming at you in English (“Bitch”, “I Could Rob You”) or in French (“Camera”, “Pas Avec Toi”), the songs always sound catchy as fuck and sexy as hell. The guitars buzz along nicely and none of the songs on here fail to put a smile on my face. “From Friends To Lovers” is very much a la Libertines and they play a nice cover of “You Are No Good”… it’s pretty much all very oh la la and I like it!
Score: 7 out of 10
