The Raveonettes

The Raveonettes continue to consist of Sune Rose Wagner (guitar/vocals) and Sharin Foo (guitar/vocals), and are still so supercool that while both of them were born and bred in Denmark Sune now lives in New York while Sharin has been moving to LA. You Want The Candy' is the second single to be taken from the duo's third album, the breathlessly titled 'Lust, Lust, Lust' which came out on fierce panda last November to a veritable hailstorm of critical appreciation. If lead-off single 'Dead Sound' caught the band in shadowy mood, carefully marking their return to the fray for the first time since leaving Sony, then 'You Want The Candy' sees the swoonsome twosome really put their foot down and head for the heart of the song. Think bubblegum thrills. Think jagged indie pills. Think the Marychain sawing The Primitives' alterno dancefloor smash 'Crash' in half. If that feels good you'll definitely want 'You Want The Candy'. Not arf. As well as painstakingly perfecting their melodies THE RAVEONETTES have been busy in other areas: they have signed a deal with Vice Records in the States, where 'Lust, Lust, Lust' was released on February 19th; and a comeback tour saw the minimal live set - now stripped down to a three-piece including one bold stand-up drummer - dazzling the faithful in Britain in November.
