The Uber Rock Approved stampMy latest pick of the pops sees these DIY Liverpool punks invoking the power of three, appearing on our playlist for the third time in as many months with the third single from their latest album, due out next week.

Commenting on the single, vocalist Roman Remains returned to the Club to tell us:

Birthed in early autumn, in a bare brick room on the fifth floor of a forty-year-old music tomb called Vulcan, the primal chord progression bled out of the window with a subconscious transatlantic rhythm. The nearest we could get to Goo or the District of Columbia with waving hands caught in the tides of west coast garage punk.

In word form its empathy for the devil inside us. A musing on Blake’s road to the Palace of Wisdom. A beer matt postcard to Lowry or Bukowski. It’s a healing song from the slumps of overactive imagination.
