Press release

4...according to our Brett on Thu 08 Jul, 2010.

This one's got a bit of a gloomy 80s kind of a thing going on with its icy synths, simple programmed beats and gothy, melodramatic vocals. It's not really harsh enough to fit in with the whole mini cold wave revival that's been going on over the past year or so, reminding me more of some of Zola Jesus's poppier material.. Or maybe watching Labyrinth when it's rainy out or something. Four good tunes but in no way are they as good as the Phorusrhacids. Thought I'd better say that just in case I ever run into one 'cos I don't wanna get my face pecked off by no giant birds, innit.

In collaboration with our pals of Atelier ciseaux (label)

skulls on a silk shirt. Dark dark dark. Again.
A little hope crossed out with a tipp-ex on a denim jacket.
Keyboard worn out by the 80s, pop romance, the future combined with the past,
Gloomy dances for phantom mirrors.
Terror Bird is still Nikki Never. Sometimes, Jeremiah Haywood too.
Vancouver behind rainbow-coloured sunglasses.
A forthcoming album on Night People / Adagio 830 and above all a 7″, ‘Shadows in the halls’,
on La station radar and Atelier ciseaux.
Atelier ciseaux and la Station Radar. Atelier radar, Station ciseaux.
A collaboration between two labels.
The beginning of a friendship, something like that. Good.
