"Feeling of Love may very well be one of the most under-rated acts out there these days, but it seems they're starting to get their due...a two-piece on this platter (with G adding Seb Normal's presence on most of the cuts), FOL bring back best of Nineties-garage-blues (Oblivians, JSBX, and Doo Rag at their finest) without the stench of revisionism, updating those styles with a Pussy Galore-like slop of noise and a healthy dose of acerbic wit. Guitars alternately slide and slash, keyboards get punched and stepped on amid the fray, Frenchmen sneer and whoop at you, drums boom and then turn coffe-can hollow...they run blues-trash through the gauntlet and come out the other side reborn as some snarling beast. One of these tunes sounds like the Bassholes if they were on AmRep. Others sound like Spencer, if he were REALLY a bad ass and not just pretending. The best song titles ever and gratuitous use of the word pussy just ratchet the entertainment value up a few clicks. "The Way to Suck"? Beautiful, like a cranked-up Bob Log fronting Unsane! "Rapeman Blues" throws another pigfuck namedrop out there (remember that Julie Cafritz song?). There's so much I love about this band right now. Invigorating music. Cheveu may be everyone's current French darlings, but Feeling of Love hold the keys to my heart. Buy all of their records now if you haven't already. " -- Rich Kroneiss in TERMINAL BOREDOM

"The latest release from the weird French one-man-act known only as The Feeling of Love came out recently on Rococo Records. Serving as an ode to the wonderful 90s, the 7" sleeve artwork features two of the biggest icons of the era, Michael Jordan and Curt Cobain. The music Feeling of Love plays oddly lends to traditional blues at its core with jangling guitar, but his clever way of wrapping it in a murky and mechanized cellophane offers more of a Glue Wave sound. With pulsing cadence, synthesized hand claps, and his hammering, voluble vocal style, Feeling of Love pulls past any question of predictability and offers up music that slides past categorization.

The standout on this single is on the b-side in a song called "Jordan's Rules," which was apparently penned by the man himself. Sung in The Feeling of Love's rapid harangue style of singing, over a dizzying, synthetic drum beat, and guitar that will have you instantly dancing like a retarded robot.

The Feeling of Love has a US tour on the horizon for this coming June, and will be accompanied by a full band featuring a member of AH Kraken. Also keep your ojos open for a full length LP out soon on Yakisakana, and a 7" out on Florida's Dying."

Great entertainment start to finish, not one single dud, so it's going to be a difficult show to follow, Gents. (I'd forgotten just how good Dr John could be, this was a timely reminder to start digging in the vinyl vaults again)
