Big Pool

on a virgin land, you seem to drift away
on the trail of someone from another plane
from a virgin land, you can't seem to escape
following a scent that comes from nowhere

loud is the chant that no one hears
proud is the man that no one sees

i-i-i-i-i sing to you-u-u-u-u
a-a-a-a-at fifty two-o-o-o hertz

on a virgin land, you seem to waste away
following a voice getting lost in a haze
on a virgin land, you crawl, day after day
following a sound that comes from nowhere

loud is the chant that no one hears
proud is the man that no one sees

i-i-i-i-i sing to you-u-u-u-u
a-a-a-a-at fifty two-o-o-o hertz

52 hertz

Slowly, slowly does it.
I need time to separate my head 
My heart 
Controls it
and I feel
I am prone to overfeeling
But please understand how long I spent so tired of living

But these are only emotions
And none of them matter

I'm well aware that I can be intense at the corner of my eye I see you are rolling yours.
I'm well aware that I can be intense at the back of my mind I can see you are changing yours.

Slowly, slowly does it.
I need time to separate my head 
My heart 
Controls it
(Burns it to the ground)
And I think
I am prone to overthinking
But please understand how long I spent so tired of living

Cause it is all an Illusion
And none of it matters

I'm well aware that I can be intense at the corner of my eye I see you are rolling yours.
I'm well aware that I can be intense at the back of my mind I can see you are changing yours.

Pull Me to Pieces

“a cacophony of clattering drums and belt-it-out choruses Los Campesinos! or Martha would be proud of evidence that Adults seem to have stumbled into something rather marvellous” 
For The Rabbits

“There’s an ample buoyancy from the vocal work, and the guitars are crunchy, though I like how they’re a bit tempered here; think of Martha having to play at your local library…hooks, but just a little more subdued. There’s just something about this song that radiates joy” Austin Town Hall

South London DIY punk outfit adults today release the final single single “tfl has a lot to answer for” form their forthcoming debut album “for everything, always”, coming out on October 14th on Fika Recordings.

The new single things we achieve is “a reflection of drinking way too much in yr mid 20s, staying up too late, burning yrself out and how it impacts on yr relationships and mental health” it’s two and a half minutes of delightfully scrappy, catchy DIY pop that’s sure to appeal to fans of Los Campesinos, Martha and Johnny Foreigner.

adults are a noisy pop band desperately clinging on to the ghosts of 2009. 
Their songs are a silly, joyful, and occasionally sad, look back at the tail end of their 20s, a way to grapple with breakups, parties, alcohol and loneliness, and looking hopefully into the future.
They’ve released singles with Art Is Hard and For The Sakes Of Tapes, and self released an EP (The Weekend Was Always Almost Over), which was subsequently released on vinyl by Caballito records. They’re based in south London.

adults are
carl (he/they) - bass
joe (he/him) - drums
joely (she/they) - guitar and singing
tom (he/him) - guitar, synth, singing

Oct 20: The Cavendish Arms, London
Oct 22: The Oast, Rainham
Nov 12: The Blue Moon, Cambridge

adults - tfl has a lot to answer for

This song developed from an idea I had walking in the mist on a beautiful June morning in Osterley Park, West London, England.

RIDLEY WOOF - Only You

Track 1 from Giggles.

Listen to the whole album here: https://open.spotify.com/album/48nhk19mNmdH6siEg4cv52

I can barely hear a whisper my dear,
why don't you mosey on over?
Throw a passing judgement my way dear,
maybe next time I'll be sober.

I know, you know, times are slow.
You know I've lived with it all my life...all my life.

I hear you giggling at me,
the piercing sound I can see.
Please help get the monkey off my back; it's been bothering me.
Out of the night, into the day.

I can feel it taking over my dear,
maybe I could have another?
Stumble out into the alley near hear,
I could find myself another lover.

You know, I know, times are slow.
You know I've lived with it all my life...all my life.

I hear you giggling at me,
the piercing sound I can see.
Please help get the monkey off my back; it's been bothering me.
Out of the night(mare), into the day.
Maybe all of this time I've been guzzling wine,
chewing the palm of the hand that feeds.

H.a.v.i.n.g.a.g.o.o.d.t.i.m.e.
Taking their time in the corner,
settled into settling,
not expecting the unexpected rattling.

I hear you giggling at me,
the piercing sound I can see.
Please help get the monkey off my back; it's been bothering me.
Out of the night(mare), into the day.
Maybe all of this time I've been guzzling wine,
chewing the palm of the hand that feeds.

Aristide's Entry Into Paris

Manchester band Cult Party have announced their first album in two years, And Then There Was This Sound, set for release on June 9th on Manchester's Icecapades Records (Slowcoaches, Joey Fourr, Sprinters, Sex Hands...)
Beginning life as the as the bedroom project of multi-disciplinary artist Leo Robinson, a specialist in the kind of hushed, evocative recordings which bring to mind the intimacy of well loved acts like The Microphones & Thanksgiving. Cult Party have quickly blossomed into one of the most respected bands working out of Manchester at the moment.

Recorded last year with a close knit group of friends, including Moshi Moshi records signee Kiran Leonard, 'And Then There Was this Sound' follows on from Leo's last full length effort, the long sold out, 'Eternal Love & The Death of Everything'. This most recent album was composed and recorded at the same time as Leo, who also works as a visual artist, was busy readying artwork for his debut solo show at the Tiwani Gallery, which is due to open in central London later this year.

With his creativity at a peak, and ideas humming around his head, Leo and his band have produced a rich follow-up album with it's eyes very much to the sky. Brimming with energy, inventiveness and positivity, It is a master-class in taut song writing and economical arrangement.

Buoyed by the assistance of some of the best musicians in Manchester, Leo's guitar playing delivers a transcendental, meditative quality, adding weight to a suite of beautifully arranged and generously orchestrated songs. Alongside a minimal set-up of guitar,vocals, organ, cello, violin and percussion, Leo's baritone croon intones a sequence of emotionally expressive lyrics, veering from free-associative poetry to intimate confessionals. All of this adds up to a wonderfully warm and amiable record, which invites you into the world of its creator.

Of the writing process behind the LP, Leo says:

"I started writing (LP highlight and twenty minute epic) Hurricane Girl as a teenager, about 7 years ago now. It was only about 2 minutes long then and I think that version ended up on a cassette i made that almost no one bought with a weird skeleton on the cover. From there it kind of grew into this thing. I kept coming back to this fluid narrative about the weather spirits, and the weather as a consequence of sentient action as opposed to just random occurrence. I pieced together ideas from all over the place - a melody borrowed from my friend Patrick's song, a lyric inspired by Mississippi John Hurt, some bits from various choral music and Hindu chanting practices. The version on the record is exactly 20 minutes long but I'm not sure it will ever be completely finished." 

RIYL: Thanksgiving, Sufjan Stevens, The Microphones, Daniel Johnson, Richard Dawson, K Records, Laraaji, Lonnie Holley, Mississippi John Hurt.

Released June 9th on Limited Edition Vinyl and Digital Platforms.

Live Dates: 

Manchester, Saturday June 9h - St Emmanuel Church, Didsbury - Album Launch

Lyrics
I’m a nodding dog and she’s long gone
As block town county and state we pass through
Built around the route
As if the road was laid as the mountains grew

A thick snow in June
We’re tumbling into a field of stars
Impossible yes but not so unreasonable yet

The dark beast
Blocks the way to the East
No time to wake poor Charlene 
To offer apologies for killing us both
I know I might die
A moment of terror
And I can’t move

I walk until walking has no meaning 
Charlene, a dead weight
and I sink down into the snow	

When does the madness start
With the snow
With the Voice
Red stuff lives he says on the inside
Bad sign if it’s on the out
Just up the ways is an Inn he says
Just got to believe it’s there
So get up off your knees
With doubt comes fireflies and trees

Fireflies

Recorded live in the Westgarth SC by Matthew "Milkbones" Brown - https://soundcloud.com/ferrophonic - onto a Fostex M80 1/4" 8 track reel to reel, with a cheap Behringer desk and a couple of SM57s. Cheers Matt!
