These high-octane, high-attitude garage rockers are like the version of the Hives no one’s heard of: They’ll blow up your skirt in concert expending the energy of 14 or 15 lesser bands, then tell you how lucky you were to see them and how courteous they were to be seen. Except instead of being Swedish they’re French. And except for being French they’re from Austin. On L’estase, their fun new album, Les Messieurs speak with very bad accents, complement angular guitar scratch with pointless piano plinks and ask the crucial question: “Sweetie, why do you hide the sweets?”
