ALVILDA - Negatif 7"
2023 repress.
ALVILDA are Nina, Eva, Sandra and Melanie and is the best power pop
inconnue! Four ALIEN SNATCH! pandemic pop pearls parisiennes! Seems the
four gals starring the SHANGRI LAS on "Leader of the Pack", but are the
ones riding Lambretta motor scooters picking up the DOGS. The are the
french version of Belfasts' PROTEX, their four-song debut 45rpm has the
trademark lofi-mod to power pop drive and add some yé-yés of their
idols, LES CALAMITÉS and some ice-melting RONETTES surf harmonies and
back ups. Fans of NUMBER ONES, WHIFFS, BARRACUDAS, TV CRIME and
PROTOKIDS put a heart-shaped cardboard file next to your A´s- After Last
Night 45 until release date. Record comes in two double sided printed
cover cards in super clear sleeves.This is ALVILDAS first recordings
from December 2020 at Château Vergogne Studio. We´re in love toutes le
nuits already!
RAZORCAKE MAGAZIN (US) April 2022 Very lovely, very SHANGRI-LAS and
RONETTES. This Paris power pop band ALVILDA serves up sunshine melodies
and angelic harmonies. Clean, dreamy and not one bad thing about it.

maximumrocknroll.com (US) Feb 2022 ALVILDA plays
garage rock wonderfully. ’60s girl group vocal harmonies backed by a
tough punk-y guitar sound with pop flourishes. The songs are so catchy,
you start to sing along on the first listen. The French accents lend an
extra air of coolness. Great stuff.(CK)
