Of course there are some serious Joy Division overtures but what would Sunday evenings be without pleasantly easy thrills. To be fair Vancouver band Mode Moderne do pepper ‘Les Neuf Soeurs’ with lots of their own idiosyncrasies which allows the song to break free of lazy comparisons (bold hugger). The thrust and momentum supplied by the bass chords are central to this songs’ success yet it’s hard not to be taken in by the juxtaposition of the coolly dispatched lead vocals and tender female cooing. You can almost taste the atmosphere, the drama that unfolds never makes it quite clear whether love eventually tears them from each other. KD
