Search - Gable :: Cute Horse Cut

Repressing. 2011 album from the French Art-Pop pioneers. Gabl? have caused a significant stir of late. After spending the past year experimenting with a bizarre collection of odds and ends lying 'round their studio and home, they present the fabulously eccentric and catchy album Cute Horse Cut, self-described as 'luxury DIY.' Using strange sounds and outlandish instruments, Gabl? pulverizes the barriers between genres with songs held together by masterful Pop melodies. Darting from sugary sweet choruses to menacing stabs into darkness, they bring to mind legions of flute-touting punks playing destructive folk songs at one massive electro banquet. Alongside the bird noises and pots and pans are a wonderful array of instruments including a toy piano, accordion, banjo, cello and timpani. But despite all the wild noise, it's the songs that remain.
