...according to our Clinton on 10 October 2008.

Finally on tangerine vinyl is a 7" by Headtapes called 'Love is Suicide'. Reminds me a lot of the darker side of New Order with bits of Soft Cell, Nine Inch Nails and Ladytron. A bit rock, a bit goth - some of the melodies remind me a bit of Maps but a much more gothy Maps that have spent time trawling around the fringes of the city in long overcoats.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

LOVE IS SUICIDE
Dogamusic Records release the debut single from Headtapes this September entitled ‘Love Is Suicide’.
Arguably the most exciting band from Coventry since The Specials, or The Primitives, or The Enemy? Well
whoever you choose that is definitely where the similarities end...
Headtapes is a one man band, G who writes all the songs & music, plays all the instruments and creates a
beautifully sad pop cacophony from his own home studios. This is music that can be enjoyed at pure face
value, all melody and rhythm, but listen closer at what lurks beneath the surface and get lost as words and
lyrics interweave with the details in the production… Inspired by the work of visual artists as much as audio
artists this is the first taste of something truly exciting…
Mixing pop, shoegaze and electronica in a whirlwind 2 and a half minutes Love Is Suicide is the perfect
introduction to Headtapes. A pulsing under 3 minute pop song, wrapped in electronic beats, with synths
that sound like guitars lifting a restrained vocal to declare the realisation that love is not what it seemed..
The single due late September/early October can be heard now on the bands myspace page:
www.myspace.com/headtapesofficial. The assorted remixes along with accompanying b-side ‘In your mind’
will be added in the run up to the release. Headtapes are also giving away an exclusive track free to all
visitors at the official website for the next few weeks entitled ‘Cut & Paste’.
Love Is Suicide is released on limited edition hand numbered 7” orange vinyl and in digital formats.
