Alphabetic’s ‘French Boyfriend’ Is Totally Addictive

"What’s so great about French boys anyway?"

South London group Alphabetic excel themselves on new cut 'French Boyfriend'.

The group's clinical take on synth pop has always had an air of remoteness about it, matching mature songwriting to glistening electronics.

'French Boyfriend' nails this aesthetic, with the song's unflinching tale of an obsessed ex combining with cool synths.

"What’s so great about French boys anyway?" the narrator asks, as his car takes him past his former girlfriend's house, again and again.

Tune in below.
