Taste: Bang Bang Bang

There's a new Iggy Pop album released today and if there's anything on it as good as Bang Bang Bang by Taste he'll have done a great job.

There's a very nicely done video too, making the link between the fetishisation of firearms in entertainment and American society in general, with the actual tragic consequences of this. From fake comedy to very real tragedy. 

You can probably name most of the films that flash up for a couple of seconds, you've probably seen them.

Taste might be a new name - this is only their second release after a track Shame Game came out in December - but the band's members La Mverte, the dark dancefloor DJ and producer Alexandre Berly and Paris-base artist Yan Wagner should be no strangers to you. 

Both have been producing some great things for a number of years and Taste looks like a fascinating step forward.

Taste also features Guillaume Marnez on drums and  Marc FKClub on guitar, making the position of an actual band that could perform live something really look forward to.

Taste release their first full EP on February 3. Can't wait.
