Its always refreshing to hear artists take a Fearless approach to experimenting with the style and sound of their music, and I’m pleased to say that the elaborate fusion of genres in Video Villain’s debut release does just that.

Video Villain consists of members Marie France and Lucy Catherwood who have, with this release, proved their ability to produce a sound rich in rhythm and attitude. The song takes you down a convoluted road of genres where you never know quite what to expect. With a mix of club and industrial rock to name just a couple of influences, the sound could be at risk of being too packed, however, the eclectic mix works surprisingly well giving a superbly textured sound crammed with hooks that will force you to your feet.

A fabulously perilous duo, Video Villain’s creativity marks them as a band to look out for in 2011.
