Giant Paw - The Stars Are Ours

“Echoes of Syd Barrett and early Floyd bounce about this eclectic collection, which on one hand is ambient and trippy and then on the other, quirky, and a touch dark and twisted. But such superlatives shouldn’t detract from the quality of this musical menagerie. Definitely not for the main stream, but if you like your music – and life for that matter – off kilter and imaginative, then this is right up your street.” MUSIC-NEWS.COM The cat is out of the bag…the debut album from Giant Paw is here. Mixed by Kramer (of Bongwater /Shimmy Disc infamy). Featuring a selection of special guests, including a passing David Dondero (singer /songwriter and Team Love recording artist). Previous art print /limited edition CDs have had radio play from Tom Ravenscroft on Channel 4 Radio and John Kennedy on XFM. “Fx, feral electronics, tape manipulations and treated guitars abound in the promising, sweetly named headliners, whose woogly psych pop recalls Flaming Lips, Liars’ less deranged moments, malevolent nursery rhymes and the output of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.” SHARON O’CONNELL – TIME OUT The North London based Giant Paw are happy to announce the arrival of their inspired debut. After roaming various London venues, including the Buffalo Bar, Rough Trade Shop, the Heavenly Social and Barden’s Boudoir the band are ready to unleash ‘The Stars Are Ours’. “After littering the stage with terrifying monster masks they proceed to plough a musical furrow somewhere between early eighties no-wave and ninties rave (Neu Order anyone?). The results are literally astounding.” CHANNEL4.COM
