Le Galaxie - Pleasure [CD]

Le Galaxie are: Michael Pope, Dave Mc Gloughli, Alistair Higgins, Anthony Hyland, and newly minted fifth member May Kay Gegharty who, having guested on the second album Le Club, came fully on board for their third album, 'Pleasure'.Le Galaxie have recently returned with "Pleasure," their first single from their forthcoming third effort. "Pleasure" is a dangerously charged sensuous slice of dance pop featuring the vocals of May Kay (Fight Like Apes) - the calling card for an album that sees the band producing a new body of work, to be enjoyed as much between your ears as between the throbbing floors and laser lit ceilings of venues and festivals across the globe. Recorded in their own studio with ultra-producer Blende, "Pleasure" points to Le Galaxie's evolution from purveyors of dance floor bangers to creators of well-crafted songs. The affecting, almost master- and servant-like vocal exchange between Michael Pope and vocalist May Kay demonstrates a self-confidence and maturity of a band in control. With trademark grooves, synth, and bass distilled into songs like "Pleasure," Le Galaxie are set to move beyond the scorched tarpaulins of Bennicassim and Lovebox this year, with tour dates in the US, Ireland and beyond.
