Nouvelle vague is back with a new album on June 15th. This new release seems to be slightly different from the previous ones. “Bande à Part” in 2006 and their eponymous “nouvelle vague” from 2004 both contained cover songs from the 80’s and especially post-punk and new wave songs (Blondie, Echo and the Bunnymen, New Order, Depeche Mode…). Their covers were quite interesting since they offered a complete different atmosphere from the originals, much more relaxed, bossa nova style. Singing “love will tear us apart” with waves and children playing in the background is somehow adventurous but it made it
It seems that their new release is also a collections of covers but this time featuring some of the original artists, this makes things even more confusing for the listener. One example with the first single (exclusively available on Teardrum), Master and servant featuring Martin Gore from Depeche Mode.
