The Postelles

ABOUT


Rolling Stone: "Albert Hammond Jr. produced these New York kids’ exuberant single – which sounds equally influenced by the Strokes and the Knack. You heard it here first: Power pop is the new Afro-pop."

New York Post: "...hopelessly catchy..."

SPIN: "The Postelles…serve up a hooked-at-the-gills, head-bobbing rock'n'roll groove. And nowhere is their sound as refined as ..," the band's swaying new single featuring the production work…of Strokes axeman Albert Hammond Jr."

SPIN: "A pitch-perfect set from NYC retro rockers the Postelles."

My Old Kentucky Blog: "Imagine a more modern take on the soundtrack to a 1950s prom with some Brit-pop zest thrown in for good measure. It's the kind of pop that makes you wanna twist and shout, or whatever it is the hipsters are doing these days."

The Modern Age: "The Postelles, a New York-based quartet playing upbeat, pop-riffic music."

Metro Boston: "New York’s Postelles major in sugary double-kick pop and minor in ’50s throwback, mod wallop."

The Yale Herald: "Citing influences from Lou Reed to Woody Allen, the Postelles, who just recently played at Yale, could easily be branded as another overtly intellectualized NYC hipster band. But instead, the band’s sound and message are refreshingly devoid of detachment, unafraid to veer into the cliché, if only for a second, then inverting it and somehow making it cool again."

Viva-Radio: "Perfectly sweet, '60s-inspired melodic pop…the boys play well beyond their years."

Zane Lowe (BBC Radio 1): "The Postelles are really good."

Pitchfork:"Admittedly, the Motown-via-treble guitars still get my foot in action. It's a weakness. And, in the hands of the Postelles, it's also a strength."
