Koko Von Napoo - June

Review by Robert Ferguson

An NME quote proudly emblazoned across the press release for Koko Von Napoo's June EP describes them as 'Topshop-electro-pop-punk'»

Buy now from:

french pop quartet koko von napoo return with a second single for trouble records in the form of this 500 only four track 10". standout track is 'rocky', which sounds to our super-attuned ears like classic early altered images when they were a sort of kindergarten banshees, with a smattering of kraftwerk's sad, twinkly melantronica on top. 'baden baden', another of the ep tracks, is also delightfully topshop imagesque, toupie skipping and hopping all over the melody, all metaphorical knee socks and insouciant disregard for metre, rhythm and rhyme. also included is a chateau marmont remix of debut single 'polly'.
