Captain
This Is Hazelville (EMI 3708502)
This is a very promising debut album from a band who play a brand of indie pop akin to the hotly-tipped Norwegians Lorraine, in that it is joyful, intelligent and extremely well produced. That last element should be no surprise in this case, since they attracted Trevor Horn to sit behind the desk. It is a brave and broad record that will most likely build throughout summer and autumn.
Cocosuma
Pointing Excitedly To The Sky
(Setanta setcd152)
Paris-based trio Cocosuma cram many sounds into this album, from fragile and uplifting opener Communication's Lost to haunting Bam! Tululu! and fast-paced electric guitar-driven Drizzling Yet Dazzling. For the most part, it is laidback and summery, although sometimes the seductive vocals and sweet electro seem to be hiding something moodier.
