Is Tropical (is good)

IS TROPICAL are new South London trio well worth checking out.  Their debut single (out 18 January), When O When, offers a fiddly alt-rock sound: initially quiet and lo-fi, then later burly and booming.  There’s a touch of the psychedelic to the feverish vocals, plus some gorgeous guitar solos.  Throw in some Klaxons-style electro meddling and these guys are set for a good 2010.  Maybe their fans will be called the IT Crowd (hahaha? ha? hmm)…


 

IS TROPICAL ought to be at their boisterous best live, too – apparently they play in masks, with self-made video projections behind.  Check out a forthcoming date at The Legion as part of the Disco Not Disco festival.
