DTCV Going for Adds

After several singles and two previous albums, on Burger and Xemu records respectively, DCTV (pronounced ‘detective’) has a brand new studio album, entitled UPTIME! available now on Unsatisfied Records. Formed in 2012, the French-American post-punk band combines alluring girl group melodies with layers of shoegazy guitars and sonic elements influenced by the likes of the Velvet Underground and Sonic Youth. Members Fiat LuxVivarock prefer not to reveal their profligate involvement with other, better-known rock combos, or with writing films, novels, and Broadway musicals, or with acquiring post-graduate degrees in international politics from the Sorbonne.

“…shoegaze girl-group pop a la Vivian and/or Dum Dum Girls with dashes of both Françoise Hardy and Pat Benatar.”
Stereogum

“A slow-burning dazzle, take it all in and let each song grow on you like a garden of barnacles; a few rounds spinning this record and best of luck to you getting those suckers off.”
Lo Pie
