Album Review

Crystal Fighters – Plage

• 29th Jul 2011

A welcome release for this stand-out track from the debut album Star Of Love.

Packed full of carnival atmospherics and the feeling that holidays in hot climates could last forever as long as you just don’t stop dancing.

The high-energy band perfectly encapsulate the rush of serotonin released by the summer sun through their eclectic and imaginative music as they tempt us down to the Plage at 4 in the morning with rustic spanish instrumentation and a lively whirlwind of percussion that should have even the sternest wallflowers on their feet and soaking up this european twist on a calypso sound.
