UPDATE 08/08/2022: "Gumball Garden" is our new Single of the Week!

With "Gumball Garden", the band open the gates to a technicolor shoegazing fantasy island.  They splice together dank strains of psych, krautrock and dream pop to grow their own hybrid. 

Dipped in syrupy synths and topped with powdered fuzz riffs, “Gumball Garden” is a delectable confection of heavy neo-psychedelic euphoria.

Hot Chip Share New Single "Freakout/Release"

London electronic/dance band Hot Chip have shared their new single "Freakout/Release".

The song is taken from their upcoming album 'A Bath Full Of Ecstasy', will be out on 19 August 2022 via Domino Records. Pre-order your copy here.

Speaking about it, the band said “Little Gem is about relationships and gardening. We call Lucy [PBE drums and synths] The Emo Gardener. She’d painstakingly cultivate her little greenhouse only to be left distraught when the tomatoes got blight – swearing and weeping by the compost heap. The song is a metaphor for our band's journey. It’s about breaking down, then finding a way around – growing new tunes, cultivating them and sometimes having to start again from scratch.”

The accompanying video, directed by Dylan Friese-Green and Aubrey Simpson, captures the band on the road, crammed into a Nissan Micra, cruising through the English countryside.

Ducks Ltd. Air "In Between Days Feat. Jane Inc" (The Cure cover)

Toronto jangle pop band Ducks Ltd. have aired their cover version of The Cure classic "Sheets of Grey" featuring Toronto-based experimental-pop artist, Jane Inc.

This is the first cover of a series by Ducks Ltd. called The Sincerest Form Of Flattery, out on Carpark Records. Get it here.

About the cover, frontman Tom McGreevy states: “Robert Smith is a genius and the Cure are the best and I absolutely love this song. It’s such a simple one but all of the pieces slot together so neatly. We listened to all the demos he made of it, and it’s cool to hear how clearly the fundamental parts of it are realized on the very first one, even though he doesn’t have any lyrics yet and is just wordlessly singing the melody (which I also do when we demo stuff!). We mostly tracked this one on a day off when we were on tour with Nation of Language, so the vocal was tracked in the front seat of a parked Mitsubishi Outlander in the middle of the night outside an Airbnb in Grand Junction, Colorado. It’s also the first thing we’ve made that our bass player Katie plays on.

Carlyn Bezic (aka Jane Inc) has been a pal for maybe a decade and is one the best musicians in Toronto. I’ve seen her in so many bands and it’s been so cool to watch the Jane Inc project come together, as it feels like she just keeps refining and perfecting a creative vision that was already clear in some of the first projects I saw her in. I’ve wanted to do something with her for forever, so I was super excited she said yes to this!

PS: Someone told me once that Robert Smith only responds to emails on one day a week and it’s always IN ALL CAPS. I have no idea if this is true, but I really want it to be. Also please email me Mr Smith!”
