The taste - I want you on Rank Records


THE TASTE
I Want You / I die when the night comes
Rank Records
Quantity Pressed: 500
Release Date: 22/2/2008

There's a nice kind of attitude when Maria Pattusch says 'I want you', you can hear her breath at the end of every verse, she's close to the mic, a little seductive and motioning you over. It's not an attack, or snotty ironic comment back on the opposite gender but more of a coy kind of trap for some unsuspecting audience member. She must be talking to me...right, but maybe she's saying I want to? You want to what?

For a minute the track slows down, and sibling Nick makes a quick break from the jangled backing rhythm guitar to change the dance direction and work the guitar distortion through it's paces, it's a really clean crunchy distortion that's going in a surprising anti-dance direction, I've heard they border on experimental when it comes to crafting the pop, and this is a perfect example. It's a welcome pause from the otherwise fairly typical high hat driven, borderline dance track.

This German based family act have been rightly compared to Franz Ferdinand, in structure and meteoric pop rise out of nowhere, half of these 7"'s are already presold, thanks to their support of Travis towards the end of last year. I've always believed there is something special about duo's and this doesn't look to be the exception.
