WE ALL WANT TO NEW SINGLE ‘NO SIGNS’ AND NATIONAL TOUR

What a rollercoaster ride 2012 was for Brisbane’s previously-undiscovered pop geniuses WE ALL WANT TO. From pretty much a standing start, they’ve made themselves known far and wide with their serious touring schedule, a never-say-die indie-DIY attitude and an album that’s deservedly landed them on numerous best-of-2012 lists.

COME UP INVISIBLE is their second long-player, and it’s clearly one of the finest Australian albums of recent times. Displaying mammoth musicality with hard-earned songwriting smarts and abetted by a whip-smart production, it’s a ‘90s-tinged set that shines with audacious ambition and genuine conviction. Tim Steward and Skye Staniford’s vocals roam between fierce defiance and naked vulnerability; guitars sigh and wail, conjuring waves of power and fragile, glittering intimacy. Keys, percussion and even bazouki materialise like angelic visions over the understated yet menacing rhythm section. It’s a riveting high-wire act made all the more fascinating for the complete lack of a safety net.

Out April 5th, new single NO SIGNS is a fine example of this – fearsomely well-crafted, as clean-lined and immaculate as a well-cut suit, yet utterly immediate and somehow unexpected. It’s a colossal pop song that is clever enough to appear dumb, riding in on a wave of “yeah yeah yeah yeahs” and yet containing the kind of truths that have to be sculpted from the hardest of experiences.

WE ALL WANT TO have clearly spent a lot of time thinking, and yet there’s an infectious joy when they play, a surrender to the certainty that great pop songs can change your world, at least for an hour or two. See it all come to life when they head off on tour through April.
