Blush Club Unleash New Single "Spices"


Glasgow indie rock/post punk band Blush Club unleashed their new single "Spices".

The song is taken from the upcoming EP of the same name (due September), and follows-on from the charismatic guitar pop EP, A Hill To Die On, released last year.

‘Spices’ turns up the temperature and slows down the pace as the the five-piece display a new assured confidence amid a backdrop of fictional letters written to liven up the mundanity of lockdown times.

Conor Heafey: “‘Spices’ was jammed and put together all in one day. It's just two chords, but it's got that heavy dynamic lift. It's quite a slow steady song, it just flowed and came out very naturally.”

Hamish Swanson: “It was one of those days when the sun was so luscious but it felt like winter was coming but it was okay. When we wrote that song, I thought the room we were in had a window because it just felt like it was golden Sun. It was a really golden thing. It just emerged out of the day.

“During lockdown I wrote a series of letters between an imaginary writer to say to a friend. I was walking around exactly the same streets every day doing the same things. I was asking a lot of questions about dumb things, pointless questions. questions that didn't even really make sense, That series of letter just seemed to fit as a narrative."

Vundabar Reveal New Track/Video "Time"


Boston indie rock/surf band Vundabar have revealed a new track called "Time".

The song is taken from their upcoming compilation 'Good Old', which will be out on September 16 via amuse. The compilation features seven unreleased tracks that were recorded between 2015’s Gawk and 2017’s Smell Smoke and four acoustic reinterpretations of previously released tracks. 

The band’s Brandon Hagen said in a press release: “You change quite a bit as a person in ten years time and naturally your music will follow suit. We see releasing these songs that never saw the light in 2016 as a way to celebrate the passage of time and fill the gap the omission of these songs left in our development as a band. From a listener’s perspective this is what will bridge the gap between 2015’s Gawk and 2017’s Smell Smoke.

“Releasing these songs now also acts as a conversation between ourselves from the past and present. In 2016 we were touring constantly, hadn’t really made the band work in any meaningful way and I was desperate to try to get it off the ground while it felt like many of the moorings in my life were dissolving. I think this reflects in the songs as they focus on insecurity, uncertainty about the future and self critique. I hear a kid in their early twenties trying to figure their shit out, which makes sense.”
