Songs of June 2020

hello, it's me again
i know you didn't want to see me but pretend
with your eyes wide awake at night
face is getting thinner it's just not right
but you know
you're responsible for this

i'm back again
all i ever wanted was a friend

but I know it's hard
as you feel my flying through your mind like crystal shards
with your chest tight, awake at night
breath is getting quicker it's fight or flight
and you know
you're responsible for this

i'm back again
all i ever wanted was a friend

hello old friend
i know you want me gone but this will never end
with your eyes wide awake at night
face is getting thinner it's just not right
is it chemical?
you're responsible

i'm back again
all i ever wanted was a friend

hello old friend
so we meet again

Hello Friend

Lyrics

It feels like
The first time that I saw you walking up to me 
A moment stuck in time 
It’s a riptide
I played it off as cool as I could be knowing that one day we would leave together

I don’t wanna know you anymore
I don’t wanna know you anymore
Cuz I’m so sick and tired of feeling like I’m second every time
I don’t wanna do this anymore
I don’t wanna do this anymore
But every time I get this close I get afraid that you won’t be mine

In low light
My photographic memory is noisy cuz I don’t know what I’m shooting half the time
But the highlights
Were high enough to get my heart to jump at just the thought of seeing you

I don’t wanna know you anymore
I don’t wanna know you anymore
Cuz I’m so sick and tired of feeling like I’m second every time
I don’t wanna do this anymore
I don’t wanna do this anymore
But every time I get this close I get afraid that you won’t be mine  

When I say
I don’t wanna know you anymore
It don’t mean I don’t want you anymore
It doesn’t mean I that don’t want you in my life 
I just wanna hold you like before
I just wanna lay there on the floor
But every time we get that close we lose our minds

I don’t wanna know you anymore
I don’t wanna know you anymore
Cuz I’m so sick and tired of feeling like I’m second every time
I don’t wanna do this anymore
I don’t wanna do this anymore
But every time I get this close I get afraid that you won’t be mine

“A quiet riot of ethereal vocals and lustrous guitars. Pinkshinyultrablast a valid insight into young modern

Russia via the early-90s Thames Valley” - The Guardian

“Beautifully toned and unconventionally fast, a gutsy effort that makes a big impression” - NME
“A complex but sumptuous confluence of mathy basslines and waves of melodic ecstasy.” - Q Magazine
“Excessively impressive, unexpectedly fast-paced shoegaze.” - Drowned In Sound

Pinkshinyultrablast, Russia’s premiere shoegaze export, have shared their epic and ethereal new single ‘Songs’.

With vocalist Lyubov moving to LA, the band were deeply immersed in exploring new ways of composing and collaborating from a distance long before it was enforced.

They tells us that "this one is kind of an oddball. I think when we recorded ‘Songs’ we weren’t really sure what to do with this 15-minute-long beast, or if we will ever get a chance to release it. For some reason, this B-side feels especially dear to all of us. Possibly because it encapsulates a certain time of us existing together as a band, a very specific moment. We’ve been living in different cities for over four years now, and I think what I miss the most about us all being in the same place is the ability to regularly spend time together in the same room, practice, and run ideas by one another — just communicate and figure stuff out, side by side. I went to a Terry Riley show last December and he was playing with his grandson Gyan. They were sitting on the opposite sides of a really wide stage, pretty far apart from one another, separated by this giant concert grand - playing, pausing, improvising - and just kind of secretly smiling at each other from across the hall. When I think of the time we worked on this song, I think of those kinds of smiles, you know. It feels like hearing back a long conversation you’ve had with a dear friend a while back. Maybe you don’t agree with everything you’ve said back then, but then it doesn’t even really matter, because you know you were just able to truly relate." 

Pinkshinyultrablast have amassed critical praise across the board since the release of their debut album ‘Everything Else Matters’ and follow-ups ‘Grandfeathered’ in 2016 and ‘Miserable Miracles’ in 2018.

On ‘Songs’ they deliver waves upon waves of expansive guitars to form a truly massive fusion of psychedelia and ambience that flows beautifully, awash with blissful synths and their trademark celestial vocals.
