Crystal Fighters specialise in genre-bending music that is utterly wonderful, yet slightly bewildering at the same time. Now, they’ve simplified their songwriting with ‘Plage’, to great effect. Recorded to mark the legendary Abbey Road Studio’s 80th birthday, ‘Plage’ is a glorious acoustic number, stuffed with infectious hooks that guarantee a sing-a-long. With an intro reminiscent of Harry Nilsson’s ‘Everybody’s Talking’ and classic subject material of trips to the beach with girls, this is a wonderful slice of retro-pop to be treasured.
