Stay Young, Stay Beautiful

Veto Silver

Mobbrule

WE SAY

Veto Silver are a south London three-piece who release this from their second EP. Not only do they look great, but this sounds promising too. This is a perfect slice of retro electro-pop. It's equally rich in melody and style, from the rich synths to the infectious chorus. They've successfully updated the obvious '80s influences of New Order, Human League and Pet Shop Boys etc, with a slick single that really hits the spot. Watch the video here. JF London Gig: 4 July, Club Fandango, Dublin Castle NW1
