Here's the finale track from John Maus' forthcoming album 'We Must Become The Pitiless Censors Of Ourselves' released through Upset The Rhythm (and Ribbon Music in North America) this June. The image is suitably trippy visual from Jennifer Juniper Stratford's wonderful new video for 'Believer' which features John Maus for the first time alongside his hero Jack Chan. 
Enjoy!

Dedicated to all my friends that died at 27.

LYRIX
= = = = = =
said your all mouth and no brains 
all rock stars go to heaven 
you said you'll be dead at 27  
when we drunk in a English tavern 
the owner poured you the Bourbon 
and you drunk your self so rotten 
he got so rich he bought a Bentley  
and moved himself to Devon 

you started dirty dancing 
and you bar tended a dozen 
i took you to the clinic 
to get you clean but you couldn't 
said in 2 days ur 27 and and ur destiny was comin
and ur papa passed so sudden 
and left you with lil somin

you blew that money on a mountain of drugs
and staged your self a bedin 
a month later when i popped in 
your still high but the winter set in 
i bought you a coffee and a muffin 
and you quoted me some Lenin 
i wished i was that clever 
but thats what kept me coming 
your friendship did mean somin 
but you left me for nothin 
when i left,  you befriended a rope
and i found you both were hanging.

someone said you are a slut
I don't mind if you are
we'll never cure our heartache
but we can live it up
someone said you are trash
I stood up for you once
you never change your story
I think you're brave enough

You always do what I want girl
I know we'll get what we want girl
I hate the past - can we kill it?

and the press will say we're trash
we reveal too much
I'm here to nail my story
I will not cover up

I'll always do what I want girl
I know I'll get what I want girl
I hate the past - we can kill it

Honey I can turn you into a woman
You're just so young but I'd rather be the one
Honey you'll become a powerful woman
It runs in our blood
I believe in you my love

someday I swear I will stay in your mind forever 
then you'll know , you'll know how to write and praise my
someday I swear we will walk in this room together
then you'll know, you'll teach, you'll fight for your own
someday I swear I will stay in your mind forever 
then you'll know , you'll know how to write and praise my
Modern Girlhood
someday I swear we will walk in this room together
then you'll know, you'll teach, you'll fight for your own
Modern Girlhood
then you'll know, you'll teach, you'll fight for your own

It gives Lost Map Records great pleasure to announce the return of Irish alt-folk/electronica and field recordings maestro Seamus Fogarty with the release of the brand new EP Ducks and Drakes. The four track collection is the first new material by the London-based songwriter to come out since his critically lauded debut album God Damn You Mountain was given a full release on Lost Map in February 2014 (“startlingly good” ★★★★★ – The Skinny). It arrives on September 4, 2015 on super limited-edition 12” vinyl with self-designed screen-printed sleeves (250 copies only) and as iTunes download, and will be preceded by a number of Irish dates and appearances at various festivals including Cloudspotting in Lancashire, the Port Eliot Festival in Cornwall and Lost Map’s Howlin’ Fringe! in Penicuik. The mesmerising video for the EP's title track 'Ducks & Drakes' made by Drew Dir of Manual Cinema is available to view and share now.
 
Seamus Fogarty’s soul-stirring blend of alt-folk, country, blues and electronica – performed by Seamus himself on a variety of instruments against a background of fragmented recordings and found sounds, from broken household appliances to snippets of random conversations with friends and neighbours  – is like nothing else in contemporary music: an intriguingly uneasy handshake between the ancient and the modern. Where God Damn You Mountain – recently hailed by Mercury Prize-nominated artist Jon Hopkins as “a shambolic masterpiece” in an interview with Mojo – was recorded in a cottage in the West of Ireland where he grew up, the Ducks & Drakes EP took shape in his adopted home of London. “The album was kind of me looking back where as these tunes are more about where I am now and how I got here,” says Seamus. “I’m from the country but soon I’ll have spent most of my life living in cities. Fields and rivers have been replaced by parks, ponds and the tube but I don’t think I’ll ever fully adjust to city life, and that’s fine with me. That’s probably why I fill songs with samples of various friends and neighbours I grew up with, to remind myself of where I come from, who I’ve met and where I’ve been.”
 
Motivated by the self-imposed challenge of “making something that sounded bigger even though the space I had to record and mix them was much smaller than what I had previously,” the songs see Seamus use more electronics, bass and drum machines among other tools. Over a finger-picked acoustic guitar phrase and a gently warping electronic beat, the title track features such varied ornamentation as Seamus’s first ever attempt at playing saxophone on a record and the dying wheezy whirr of his old washing machine as it completes its farewell cycle. There are hints of Smog about ‘Holyhead’, a woozy sea shanty set to queasy piano and banjo charting strange encounters on the evocative ferry journey from Holyhead to Dublin. Lasting over ten minutes and taking up the entirety of the record’s B-side, ‘A Mile Beneath The Broken Heart of London Town’ is a kaleidoscopic reflection on “searching for somewhere to call home,” melding what began as three separate compositions into a single dreamy, beautiful, haunting whole.
