#Stillcantgetup {{bainz}} **2023

These are five tracks we’ve poured ourselves into - emotionally, creatively, and technically. The lyrics are incredibly personal, and we spent a lot of time building up layers with guitars, percussion, and backing vocals. It’s taken real dedication to reach the sound we had in our heads. It’s been a challenge, but the end result feels honest and powerful.
We feel it represents a good cross section of our various sounds and styles and we hope you enjoy!

The Places Where We Go

“Never In My Mind” starts off like a call to arms full of violence and energy, and continues its rampage pace like an adrenaline shot to the heart. The marching snare drum is overlaid with fuzz-heavy guitars and dark distorted vocals to produce a sound that is distinctly Sonic Jesus.

Released on 7" and digital 20th November 2015.   

“Never In My Mind” is the B side to the band's Locomotive EP. Side A features a remix of “Locomotive” by Sonic Boom aka Pete Kember from Spacemen 3 and Spectrum. Sonic Boom's remix maintains the track’s beautiful abstract vocals which evoke some kind of religious ritual or perhaps a lonely lament. The song is then propelled into the heavens as the band crashes in and Sonic Boom’s psychedelic treatment takes effect.  

FUZZ CLUB RECORDS

Fuzz Club Records is an independent label, online store and production company that focuses on raw, experimental rock and roll, influenced by psychedelia, shoegaze, noise, garage, blues, folk and experimentation.
 
Established in rural Norway during the 24 hour darkness of the Arctic winter, Fuzz Club entered the scene in 2012 with their compilation The Reverb Conspiracy – made in collaboration with Austin Psych Fest – a now annual release capturing the essence of the underground scene as it is today.
 
Today Fuzz Club has around 20 artists and over 40 releases featuring names like Anton Newcombe, Goat, Alan Vega, The Black Angels, Dead Skeletons, A Place to Bury Strangers and The Underground Youth.

Sonic Jesus - Never In My Mind

The latest offering from the experimental noise masters is a collaboration between the three core band members and 20 of their contemporaries, who each designed a piece of music inspired by a single riff.

Much like the process of continuous recreation that its namesake symbolises, the West London group’s third LP, Hoopsnake, devours the seemingly eternal riff and constantly reinvents it to form a series of parallel iterations to the original composition.

The riff was born from a repetitious loop originating from the sessions for their previous LP, the Sonic Boom mastered Aether. The band then recorded two versions of it (one a loud, guitar-driven take, the second a softer synth passage) and shared it with friends and collaborators, inviting each artist to create a corresponding sonic interpretation, which have all been mixed into four separate 10 minute long tracks. 

The result is a seamless meshing of ideas from some of the best minds in the underground music scene - including The Oscillation’s Demian Castellanos and Steven Lawrie of The Telescopes - whose recordings span the weird and wonderful, ranging from ‘home made noise box’ to  ‘Godin Artisan ST II recorded on solar power in a caravan’, to simply ‘lime green guitar.’ The roster of musicians and their various tools and instruments has been documented on the vinyl edition’s printed inner sleeve, and reads like a cross between a tech catalogue and a fantasy novel.
