Bleep

Quirky west-coast pop futurists Fol Chen unveil their third LP ‘The False Alarms’ on their frequented outpost Asthmatic Kitty Records. A jumped up, electronic 4/4 beat provides the base on the forward thinking opening title track 'The False Alarms' which develops into a catchy, left-field pop piece through well-placed drum fills and floating vocals. 'A Tourist Town' and '200 Words' push the group’s shift to a more beat-driven ethos with Sinosa Loa taking solo vocal duties on both. Mechanical stomps and a dense electronic scenery make up the extended closing track 'This Place Is On TV', rounding up a visionary collection of avant-pop.
