I'm So Tired (Fugazi Cover)

Parquet Courts cover Pretty Girls by Joey Pizza Slice (Son of Salami) on the split 7" currently up for pre-order at www.wharfcatrecords.com.

Words:

Wharf Cat Records is excited to announce this split release by two of our very favorite artists, Parquet Courts and Joey Pizza Slice.  Each one has long admired the other's catalog through various incarnations and releases.  Now they get a chance to cover one another’s songs.  On the A Side Joey Pizza Slice (AKA Son of Salami) gives tribute to the angular guitar churn of the Parquet Courts' 'Picture of Health,' filling the vocals with helium and letting them loose like balloons into a hazy summer sky.  On the flip the Parquet Courts turn Joey's synth pop masterpiece, 'Pretty Girls,' into the perfect  summer jam that will get you stoked about cloudy days and being ignored all the time - it's just a matter of perspective after all!  This is a balanced and involving 7" comprised of 2 tracks sure to help keep you cool well into the dog days.

Lady's In Trouble With The Law

LA Priest - Lady's In Trouble With The Law

Cruising's debut will be released by Tough Love on 14th August 2015 in a limited edition of 300 12”, with the first 100 on hot pink vinyl. Pre-order the hot pink pressing here -  http://smarturl.it/Cruising.pinkvinyl 

Cruising are a four piece from Dublin and Belfast made up of Benni Johnston (Vocals), Claire Miskimmin (Guitar/Bass) Neil Brogan (Guitar/Bass) and Sarah Grimes (drums). With previous/ongoing experience in bands such Girls Names, September Girls, Sea Pinks and Logikparty, Cruising began in 2013 as a side project for all four.

Named for William Friedkin’s gay exploitation shocker from 1980, the debut single You Made Me Do That (taken from the killer’s line in the film) dropped in early 2014 on Soft Power records and was recorded live as it was written. Practicing sporadically and playing a string of incendiary/chaotic live shows when schedules allow, CRUISING have now miraculously recorded their debut EP proper for Tough Love. Recorded in two days in a freezing railway arch studio (Dublin’s Guerilla Studios) in January 2015, and mixed at Belfast’s Start Together, the self titled EP shows the band in various guises, morphing between popper’d up Agit-Punk (the re-recorded You Made Me Do That, Woman), psyched out post-punk (Lifting), and riff driven bangers (Safe Corridor, Cutlass, The Spectacle).

Shows in Dublin, Belfast and London TBA.
