The Arts Desk has said... 

"A bold use of literature has inspired this absorbing, claustrophobic, intense and strange album.... Hunt it out."

And God Is In The TV has said...

"And there you have Becky Becky, with one of the most utterly, unmissably compelling albums that I’ve heard. Not “that I’ve heard in months”, simply “that I’ve heard”."

  Thank you so much. xxx

1 Week to Album Launch / New Album Review

It's one week to our audio-visual album launch spectacle. Facebook event here: https://www.facebook.com/events/753481158029289/

We've also had a lovely little review over at Penny Black Music (http://www.pennyblackmusic.co.uk/MagSitePages/Review.aspx?id=9521)

  "This hits the mark. You might remember back in the 1980s when the obscure tracks were the ones that everyone wanted to dance too, but they came thin and far between. Well, this little package is full of them. Marvellous!"

Album review

We have another album review from Cuckoo Review...

"A grungy and scuzzy vibe recurs throughout, from the deep ethereal beats of album-opener ‘Quite Like Old Times’ to the haunting, screeching vocals of ‘House Of The Black Madonna’. Both of these tracks are standouts, and NEED to be downloaded. ‘House Of The Black Madonna’ plays an infectious, pounding dance beat which contrasts heavily with the twinkling 80’s synths of ‘I Remember, I Remember’, which evokes thoughts of Human League. ‘Mask’ mars a childlike vocal (reminiscent of both AlunaGeorge and MS MR) with a scuzzy beat that somehow works.... "

Our album is available for download right now, kids. Go to www.beckybecky.com to download or get a limited edition CD with hand-cut artwork.

Album Review + album available now!

hiapop have given our record a lovely little review...

"Becky Becky have created an alternative pop album with high credentials boasting a friction between two uncompromising individuals which leaves a satisfying if not puzzling wake... House Of The Black Madonna is representative of the ten tracks with steaming bassline and infectious chorus which could have come straight from the New Romantic era."
