((Malajube)) Band Profile and Upcoming Chicago Concerts - Oh My Rockness
Malajube
Montreal's Malajube play melodic eccentro-pop similar to what their compatriots The Unicorns were doing before they broke up (the vocals even sort of sound the same). It makes sense then that these four guys have toured with Unicorn Nick Diamonds' next band, Islands.
With Malajube, you get cheerfully distorted guitar rock-outs coupled with fierce piano freak-outs. I would tell you what their songs are about, but they sing in French. I took Spanish. But I'm guessing all of their songs are about Arcade Fire.
They've been around for a few years, but only recently "broke" with the release of their highly acclaimed album, Trompe-L'oeil. You should pick it up and go see them.
