Australian psych-pop musician Jay Watson (member of Tame Impala and Pond) side-project GUM has unveiled a new video for "Ancients".
The song is taken from the reissues of his albums Delorean Highway (2014) and Glamorous Damage (2015), out Friday 8 July via Spinning Top Records. Grab it here.
The founding member of Pond and touring member of Tame Impala will share his seminal debut and second studio album, newly remastered by Kevin Parker.
The futuristic video for Ancients (from Glamorous Damage) was created by Baltimore animator Jake Armstrong, run the gauntlet on the ultimate battle of chess across alternating 3D space portals.
GUM says of the forthcoming releases, “I recorded Delorean Highway and Glamorous Damage in my early 20’s. They were my first attempts at writing, recording and mixing music on my own, so while there are parts of them that I find awkward and hard to listen to, I’m also really proud of them. They’re like looking at old photos, youthful exuberance and embarrassment all at once. Finally anyone who wants to own them on vinyl can, there were only 500 copies made of each at the time they were released and they’ve been out of print for a while now.”.
