It has been three and a half long years since Parisian four piece ALVILDA released the Negatif 7” on Alien Snatch. They have been playing gigs but there has been no sign of recorded material. Now they finally return with their debut album for Static Shock Records and without doubt it’s a stonewall classic.
Every minute, every inch and every song is lean, locked in and upbeat with a tight and bright production. If you love 60’s girl pop but with a late 70’s power pop edge or Indie pop that has been raised on a diet of tuneful punk rock, then ALVILDA will be your new favourite band, just like DOLLY MIXTURE were, just like CHIN CHIN were and just like LES CALAMITÉS were.
The album is just under 30 minutes and it never lets up with quality and tunes that get stuck in your head. Not being able to speak a word of French is not a hindrance, as all the songs are instant and catchy. Alvilda is here to stay, and it's time already.

This album looks like a picture of the best 80's classic bands. Something between Joy Division, New Order, The Cure, Echo and the Bunnymen and many more with a touch of Suicide. Sha 2001

Really pleasant French Power Pop with some splashes of punk and nods to the 60s. This has a lot of the qualities I love about Alvilda, but this band stands strongly on their own. It’s a good point of reference though, Chin Chin too. The lead vocals and backing vocals sound lovely together. Mitch Mitcherson
Berlin outfit crank out a wide range of heavy ’70s sounds, juggling everything from proto-metal and glam to garage rock and heavy psych. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 15, 2023
The gorgeous new single from this Belfast group has the bright, ringing guitars of C86 and the soft-focus vocals of shoegaze. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 15, 2022
