Yves Klein Blue

are an Australian band seemingly on a mission to blend as many elements of rock music as they possibly can. There are pop sensibilities here, a vaguely garage sound, a dash of punk and everything in between. Most importantly though, the end result is a band that sounds just about ready to be the next indie-mainstream crossover darlings. Assuming their name isn’t just a little too awkward for that at least.

Ragged & Ecstatic will be released on June 26 by the wonderfully named Dew Process.
