Snow White. Limited to 300 copies. Catalog Number: SNOWFLAKE33 Color: White Format: 7" UPC: 6152812630693 Les Pommes De Lune debuted in 2022 on the Los Angeles psych-pop label Hypnotic Bridge with the 7" 'Premiere Transmission'. The single included a cover of 'Une Fleur', originally recorded by French actress and singer Christine Delaroche, and Status Quo's 'Pictures Of Matchstick Men' - in French. Although the band was new, the members of Les Pommes De Lune had a long history in the Canadian garage and psychedelic rock scene, having played in bands such as Thee Gnostics, The Double Feature Creatures, The Saffron Sect, Les Sequelles, Les Incapables and Le Chelsea Beat. Musically inspired by the British Freakbeat scene of the late 1960s and the French Yeye sound of the mid-1960s, Les Pommes De Lune have developed their own take on psychedelic rock. The band's single for the Snowflakes Christmas Singles Club will feature the first Les Pommes De Lune original - although the song sounds like a long-lost gem from 1967. On the B-side we find another cover, of an obscure song by Pussy Cat (French singer Evelyne Courtois).The original 'La Revolution Des Lutins' ('The Elves' Revolution') and the cover 'Le Plus Fort' ('The Strongest') both deal with the same subject: the revolution of the elves! Inspired by the White Panther's 10-point plan, the elves demand total liberation, toys every day, eggnog and Yule log NOW! Les Pommes De Lune support the elves' valiant struggle with quivering guitars, psychedelic music and rhythms. Packaged in a sleeve with great artwork by Marie-Pierre Morin and the Elfs Manifesto on the back, the single is pressed on snow-white bio-vinyl and limited to 300 copies.
