The Cream, formed by Nick Thorburn and Mike Stroud, will release their debut album, A Taste of Cherry, on June 5.
It's the sort of party where attendees are drinking "all kinds of syrups" in their cocktails and "everyone gets to be themselves". On "God's A Raver", over jubilant, Scissor Sisters-lite piano, Nemo - born Nemo Mettler, in Biel, Switzerland - trills: "If there's a God, we just met at the gay bar. She is a raver just like me!" Partying is again a holy practice on the whimsical, glam-pop stomper "Ride My Baby": "The universe is a club, and I'm convinced that you're God."
