Bolting fully formed and fantastically attired from the Blue Mountains where Christmas is a mere 6 months away Belles Will Ring truly are a tonic. Their debut album is already old news down under with a harvest basket of critical arse licking already to its name. And a cursory listen to ‘Mad Love’ reveals why adjectives and this band rightly go hand in hand. The first and last thing that will hit you about the song is the driving beat, which almost overawes the joyous psychedelic swirl that accompanies it. In fact in another life this could have been Alan Wren warming his wrists for the final reel of ‘I Am The Resurrection’. Elsewhere there’s a sneaking regard for the Dandy Warhols’ ecstatic sixties jaunt circa ‘Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia’. The result is a dinger of a tune that should send many interested parties down ‘Mood Patterns’ way. KD
