Milan rock band Used To Be Apes have just hit the streets with a new single, “New Waves”. It is a classy emotive three and a half minutes of perfect pop rock. The track is fuelled by melancholy but hopeful lyrics. I can sense elements of REM, Prefab Sprout and New Order. But this band are not copyists, they are very original. I can see this song making my songs of the year list in December. In the olden days when pop charts mattered this would have been a huge hit.
