Another day, another Canuck success story – like Torontonian two-piece Death From Above 1979, this Montreal-based three-piece are more aggressive than some of their fellow countrymen, with debut Non-Stop Je Te Plie En Deux being a blast of aggressive synth-rock fusion.

It’s a sound that’s been popularised by the likes of the Killers and the Bravery, but We Are Wolves are doing something far more exciting and dangerous with it. There’s still pop songs at its base, but they’re drenched in some truly invigorating rhythms which are more in keeping with Girls Against Boys than anything else.

They’re still capable of going nü-new-wave when they want to – “Moi, Rhythme Magique” bounces off the disco walls with its enthusiasm, while the keyboard squelch of “L.L. Romeo” is cheesy but hellishly addictive. “Snake Me” and “Non-Stop” thrive on punk energy and killer hooks, and best encapsulate what We Are Wolves can do when they do it best.

The palette of Non-Stop Je Te Plie En Deux is only limited by We Are Wolves own devices – there’s not really that much variety on offer here. It’s a case of either killer hooks or vicious punk energy, with little in-between, and scant quiet moments. You get the sense that We Are Wolves are most certainly a band that are worth keeping an eye on.
