Xavier Cafeine, who sings in both French and English, is a one-man band whose musical quiver includes raw ‘70s synth-pop, slick ‘80s gloom rock, and ‘90s garage-rock revivalism. Montreal's prince of power pop is a positive thinker at heart, so even tunes concerning death and suicide share the giddy optimism of his anthemic love songs. It's bouncy music with a big beat and an unstinting faith in rock redemption.
