Exceptionally witty, somewhat zany and of course ‘spooky’- Faux Real’s latest contribution to the world of avant-pop ‘Spooky Bois’, is a spook-tacular sonic success.
Pitching themselves firmly in the camp of avant-pop psychedelia, Faux Real have transported the genre to new heights with their use of kaleidoscopic and exuberant synth-scapes on the track, making for a totally intoxicating musical experience. Initially, the Franco-American duo’s approach to music seems somewhat humorous or trivial, as layers of eerie or indeed ‘spooky’ sounds intermingle with playful vocals. However, this roguish sonic bearing serves as the perfect guise for a far darker commentary on not only our inner realities as human beings, but on the outer ‘spook’ of the descent of world politics into chaos and the plagues of capitalism.
