Stay Alive by The Pains of Being Pure at Heart from the self-titled album

Stay Alive

Cold (cover Cure)

'Get Me There' is the first track on TOWNS debut album 'Get By' due [insert date] from Bristol's much lauded DIY label Howling Owl Records. The album is available physically on limited vinyl and cd as well as digitally from online retailers [insert pre-order link].

In keeping with this DIY affair 'Get By' was recorded in Bristol with friends and fellow label mates Dom Mitchison (Velcro Hooks) and was mastered by Oliver Wilde, with additional help in the early stages by Hugo Bishop (Oliver Wilde). The album also features appearances from Robin Stewart (The Naturals), Dom Mitchison (Velcro Hooks) and Richard Clarke (Scarlett Rascal) on penultimate track 'Everyone's Out'. While the album artwork was taken by girlfriend and former member of GuMM Lily Cook.

'Get By' sees childhood friends TOWNS create a spaced out suburban escapism that combines the experimental guitar sounds and DIY aesthetics of psych and shoegaze with the melodies of 60s and 90s guitar pop. Seeing the excitement of rock’n’roll as a way to escape the everyday humdrum of growing up in Weston-super-Mare, they believe in the beauty, glamour and power of ‘proper’ pop music.

Already in their short career TOWNS have experienced many highs and lows and know how volatile the music industry can be. Being lauded by NME as a best new band of 2011, based purely on two demoes before they had even played their first show, to their former booking agent running off with over £1000 of the bands money, virtually crippling the band, to the high of working with legend Owen Morris (Oasis, Verve), only for the label paying the bill to get swallowed up by a major. It's been pretty eventful but TOWNS are proud to be finally sharing their debut album with you.

Leave the Planet Winter Sleep Feb 3, 2015

can we take another ride?
running dreams all the night
tears born from memories
there is no space, there is no time

falling back again
falling back again
falling back again
falling back again

can we take another ride?
running dreams all the night
tears born from memories
there is no space, there is no time

falling back again
falling back again
falling back again
falling back again

give me colors 
give me lights
give me colors 
give me lights

Part 9 of the Handcut Record Club marks the return of old friends as we welcome Husband Material onboard. Launching earlier this year with NME Radar’s track of the week ‘What Did I Do Wrong’ (and following a quick stint in our AIH vs Mac DeMarco sessions), HM prove who is the ‘Bigger Man’ – available now for free download as part of our HCRC collection. 

Having exhausted writing and recording as the short-lived Bos Angeles, Richard Board effectively strips preconceived ideals of how he may have evolved, championing minimalist melody and forlorn funk at its finest. Melting bass lines through intoxicating keys, it’s the impressive subtlety of swooning guitar cushioned by depreciative vocal that fuse the natural depth of Board’s pop sensibilities. Completing the group’s lineup are Charlotte Desborough (keys / vocals), Zac Harris (bass / vocals) and also of Bos Angeles, George Rothman (drums).

As with previous Hand Cut singles, Bigger Man will be released on lathe cut 7″ and limited to 25 copies. The 25 copies will be available from our shop here at 1pm today! As always it’s worth pointing out that because these records are handcut, they will sound slightly lofi! If you’re not down with that, then the track is available for free download from both our Bandcamp and Soundcloud. (http://artishardrecords.limitedrun.com/products/557695)

Not only will Husband Material join us at our upcoming 5th birthday event (https://www.facebook.com/events/696329020492478/) but they'll also play the follow dates;

29th August - The AIH 5th Birthday, Bristol
18th September - Transmission at The Winchester, Bournemouth
19th September - Secret location (!!), London

Pick Me Apart

First track from Cold Colors & Xiu, 
Cold and minimal synths.
France/Italy 2012

Cold Colors & Xiu - Loneliness (unmastered)

she was young
posing in soft position
she was catchiing points of light
hoping to make him listen

she was bright
hiding a cold condition
silently crying out
holding a ghosts opinion

you me coming together
and its always the same frame
rewind

you me breaking apart
and its always the same game
rewind

he was blind 
shying away from decision
jumping around inside
crying out for position

he had lost
warning a cold ambition
shivering endlessly 
fighting his own submission


you me coming together
and its always the same frame
rewind

you me breaking apart
and its always the same game
rewind
