SIDE A: So Ladder Strong / Come See Lightly
SIDE B: O What A Nite / I Can Hear Music
I first saw this listed on the KDVS top 20 as being from the Vivian girls, so that's when I contacted Cherry burger to ask if they had a new Vivian Girls single coming out I didn't know about and they politely wrote back the artist they represent is US girls.
Ooops.
Then I saw this is at Academy and from SS records, so it most definitely has nothing to do with the Vivian Girls and more to do with the shitgaze sound. A severe mess of melody rising out of the murk.
The impression I got from the myspace tracks is the impressive amount of distortion...it's most likely synth but again it's hard to tell with the reverb/distortion/overmodulated sounds happening. The vocals kind of become another sound...words are chanted, sung out long to really get a crazy tone.
This is in the Dead Luke, Digital Leather, TV Ghost, Pocahaunted family of demented late at night seance computer ritual, 4 track recording glitch equipment...cans, metal microphones...nightmares of machines.
Perfect for a Monday morning...you're late to work, the coffee machine is broken, and you swear this is the day you quit.
Let US Girls help you.
