The Wave Pictures ready new album, tour

The Wave Pictures will sidle up to the Aloysius Church in London, NW1 tomorrow night, as they strive to charm audiences far and wide into buying their new album.

The band break their duck for new label Moshi Moshi with Instant Coffee Baby, which is either a record indebted to the mad joy the right amount of caffeine can conjure or odes to children embalmed, Josef Mengele-style, in vats of Nescafe.

With titles like ‘I Love You Like a Madman’ and ‘Strange Fruit for David’ (the latter out on 7” on the 28th of April) no-one will ever know for sure, but they seem like nice lads so we’ll come down on the safe side for now, until Instant Coffee Baby arrives on the 5th of May.
