Diminishing returns are beginning to set in for Nouvelle Vague's French pop reinterpretations.By its nature, novelty works best the fewer times it is experienced. Nouvelle Vague attempt to buck that rule with 3, its third album of post-punk and new wave covers filtered through a French pop sensibility.

I guess their second album just came out, because I bought it at Hear Music, and it wouldn't scan or show up in their database, so I had to listen to the album the old-fashioned way, with a CD player and not using Hear Music cool little music sampling session.Bande a Part is Nouvelle Vague's second album, and continues its downtempo exploration of punk and new-wave hits and little known gems of...

This is a really cool group that covers 80s new wave and punk tunes in a 60s bossa nova style..
