New Brontosaurus Chorus – Louisiana

Six months on from their album, the band with my favourite name of the year are back with a single just in time for Halloween. The song itself is typical of the band. It’s a cheerful sounding little indiepop number with some instrumentation that’s more complex than you might expect. Of course, ultimately it’s just eight people making a joyful racket, but hey, isn’t that what being in a band is all about?

Best of all, they’ve also come up with a video to suit the occasion too. It’s your typical scary movie fare, with a deceased band member leaping out of their coffin and turning the others into zombies and then the inevitable fightback. It’s also surprisingly violent. It’s not everyday that you get a music video with limbs being pulled off and chainsaw decapitations.

Louisiana will be released as a free download single on October 31 (that’s this Saturday!) and will include a bunch of remixes of the song. All from those nice people at PopArt London.

If I was ever going to fall in love with a band based on a name alone, this would be it.

are a band made up of a few boys, a few girls, various instrumentation and a love of all things indie pop. We have a slow build that suddenly launches into a big pop record. Vocal duties flit back and forth between male and female voices. Yes, my ! sense is tingling too. Which regulars readers will know is always something that will get me excited.

Not that Brontosaurus Chorus are exactly the same. They are from London for a start. Seriously though, their songs seemingly have more work put in to them, resulting in a sound that is rather more polished. One gets a sense that each moment of these songs have been carefully thought out, down to the tiny little flourishes. Somehow we end up with a sound even bigger than the eight person lineup the band already carries.

You’ve Created A Monster is out now on Pop Art.
