Galore Share Bastard Video

There is something so powerful about the jangling of a guitar that just makes the world open and say awesome, like on this new Galore track. You can’t deny that the minute they started chugging away at those jagged riffs that your spirit instantly picked up, much like the joy the band takes in smashing things throughout the accompanying video. The vocals do a lot to carry the song as well, switching back and forth between the wistful dreaminess of indiepop and an emphatic punch up when the whole gang joins in on the fun. Everything about this track just feels like this is the world we should be living for, so grab Dirt from Speakeasy Studios SF on July 25th.

Colin Newman to Reissue Bastard

While my introduction to Colin Newman was most certainly centered around his work as a key cog in Wire, as I later delved into his other work, Bastard ended up finding a home in my collection. It was, for all intents and purposes, a techno record done by a songwriter whose musical constructs always seemed like they could parallel the genre. Good news for you record heads though, as the 1997 classic is now being released on vinyl for the very first time; if you buy the CD version, there’s a bonus disc with unreleased and rare tracks being offered up, courtesy of Swim; it drops January 26th. It’s always been a joy to know that some of my favorite guitar heroes from the 70s and 80s spent so much of their time dancing out of the limelight. Enjoy a new video for “Turn.”
