Pesaro is a town on the coast of North East Italy and of late it has been making a name for itself for producing a clutch of promising new bands. Not exactly Bergen in scale but a scene has formed nonetheless with Be Forest at its head. 2011’s ‘Cold’ was their debut album (with definite Cure influences) and its follow up, ‘Earthbeat’, is due early next year. ‘Captured Heart’ is the promo song from the newbie and should appeal to XX and the Pains of Being Pure At Heart fans as well as those of us old enough (and into bands such as the Pale Saints) to remember labels such as Sarah who produced artists and songs of this ilk. ‘Captured Heart’ may be about a minute too long but it is still a glorious distillation of soft dynamics. Erica Terenzi vocals are obviously the main draw but behind her you’ll hear elaborately constructed arrangements that never encroach on her message. KD
