If your town is bigger than Peoria, there's a steady chance that Chvrches has swung by a few times in the past two years: The Scottish trio has been touring steadily in support of debut album The Bones of What You Believe since early 2013. In between concerts, though, the band still found time to contribute a new song, "Dead Air," to The Hunger Games: Mockingjay soundtrack, which was personally curated by Lorde herself. Vulture caught up with the band the day they played VH1's You Oughta Know concert to discuss what makes a great soundtrack song, how they've been dealing with online misogyny, and which of them would survive an actual Hunger Games.You recorded your first album before doing much touring. Now you've been on the road for nearly two years straight. Did your approach change on this song?Martin Doherty: It was the second time...

The BBC’s annual ‘Sound of…’ list marks out the bands and artists that will be shoved down the general public’s throat and held on a pedestal for the next twelve months. The top couple of acts usually do well but most others bother Radio 1 infrequently after that year is up (La Roux, the Ting Tings) and a number of acts make less than a ripple, let alone a splash (The Twang, James Blake) so on seeing the name Chvrches in fifth place on the 2013 list I was hopeful but not expecting anything special until I heard their debut single ‘The Mother We Share.’ It is a piece of delightful synthpop, not least because of the refreshingly joyous and delicate lilt in the vocal performance of singer Lauren Mayberry. On the strength of this song alone I went into the three piece’s first studio...

Electro-pop music has finally been justified with the Scottish outfit, Chvrches. The group, which consists of Lauren Mayberry (lead vocals), Iain Cook (multi-instrumentalist, vocals) and Martin Doherty (synthesizers, vocals), doesn’t abuse their instrumental privileges by flooding tunes with clumps and clumps of beats. Instead, the trio has the ideal mix of catchy melodies, memorable lyrics and vocal intonation. Chvrches will be a breakout band of 2013 and their experimental sound will keep them afloat in this industry for many years to come. Let’s address one obvious outlier, the “V”. Chvrches is pronounced as “churches”, but to avoid the Google search clutter, the outfit opted for a letter replacement. Smart and [ Read More ]
