Beyond the 80s revival

We Have Band is certainly inspired by dark british 80s pop like Human League, New Order and Pet Shop Boys. The synths at the beginning of "Divisive" pulsate in a way that recalls "Don't You Want Me, Baby?" But WHB proves they are not a novelty act. The sometimes robotic vocals have a real melancholy behind them while the opening track "Piano" shows the richer side of the vocals. "Hear In The Cans" races along like the best tracks from B-52's "Wild Planet." The influences are diverse and retro, but their sincerity and vision allows them to effortlessly take their sound into the present. 90% of the album is hit single material. The tone-deaf remixes included here as bonus tracks are the only weak spot. Enjoy!

We Have Guilty Pleasure

One listen to this, and it is hard to imagine that We Have Band won't be the Next Big Thing, if there is such a thing anymore. Their sound is quizzical and quirky, based in an almost retro-sounding electronica that has a certain timeless quality to it. While they owe a lot to the moves and grooves of 80s synth pop, they also have an artful edginess born out of artists like Joy Division/New Order and Talking Heads. Add to that a knack for wild and whacked out videos, and you have the perfect recipe for sparkling underground Europop that will impress even your most finicky hipster friends.

The high points of the disc come with the tracks Divisive and Oh!, where they pull out all the stops and smother the listener with catchy hooks and driving dance beats, pouring on the 80s pop stylings without apology or regret. What is most evident is that they sound like they're having a great time while they're doing it, which is downright infectious to the listener. I for one welcome this year's first guilty pleasure with open arms.

WOW

heard divisive in hollister and bought the whole album. amazing music!

Biography

Genre: Alternative

Years Active: '00s, '10s

The self-described "disco-rock trio" We Have Band offer up a mix of danceable pop and electro that, in the group's first year, had already been featured on several compilation albums and sampled by such prominent electronic acts as Friendly Fires. The trio — comprising former EMI employees Thomas W-P, Dede W-P, and Darren Bancroft, all of whom share vocal duties — hit blog spaces and compilations hard in 2008 with their first two singles, "Oh" and "Hear It in the Cans."
