Cigarettes After Sex – K

admin — Thu, 17 Nov 2016 09:47:49 +0000

Like the languorous haze of the period their name is drawn from Cigarettes After Sex create steady ambient pop that bristles away yearningly. K (a lady called Kristen) is bleary eyed perhaps, but also romantic with potent dance qualities. Led by vocalist and songwriter Greg Gonzalez and his androgynous voice, it’s a tender teaser for a full length follow up to 2015’s Affection, and evidence as to why the Brooklyn band are tipped for big things.

Eagulls – Nerve Endings

admin — Tue, 27 Aug 2013 13:24:01 +0000

Just signed to Partisan Records, Leeds four piece Eagulls haven’t lost any of the smudged speedy snarl that first caused a splash when they released debut single Council Flat Blues on Not Even Records. Urgent and energetic, Nerve Endings speeds along, all smudged and snarling. From its opening distorted fuzz it throws itself at you, managing to be at once nonchalant and compelling as singer George Mitchell somehow sneers wistfully ‘I’m nervous and I’m tired.’ The whole thing is one of dense fractious fog, galloping along whilst the wall of guitar doodles in big sweeps of noise. Like its name it tingles and pulls, sending thrills through the body of a slightly electric nature. Out on September 30th on Partisan Records, Nerve Endings, and available to pre order on 7″ and download here, before what we can only hope will be more of the same on the debut album in 2014.
