Stephen Durkan - The Acid Commune

Peplo is a Glasgow based four-piece that cuts classic pop songcraft with an alternative edge; the band begin '22 with the release of their new single 'Goodnight Maria' on January 28th, and will be performing on the UK's summer festival circuit – with a slot at ButeFest already confirmed.

'Goodnight Maria' is the band’s fourth single. The eponymous Maria is a typical millennial heroine – a displaced and exploited twentysomething, who relies on pretension and pride to remain wilfully oblivious to being the poster girl for a lost generation. The song takes this to be both endearing and pitiable, lending 'Goodnight Maria' an acerbic tone that’s new to Peplo’s palate (this more rock-adjacent track comes hot on the heels of dream-pop jangler, ‘Katarina’s Got My Tongue’, as well as the balladesque ‘Tall’ and ‘Just to Get to You’).

"...a big pop tune with loads of ambition, cloaked in a shy and soft overcoat" - SNACK Magazine

"Vocalist Cit Lennox can hit sky-high notes with ease" - Shereen Cutkelvin, BBC Radio Scotland

"...charming, classic jangle pop" - Tom Robinson, BBC 6 Music (of previous single 'Katarina's Got My Tongue')

Highlights from Peplo’s career to date include performing at Last Night From Glasgow’s label showcase at Celtic Connections; being shortlisted for Fresh On The Net’s Listening Post (where the band’s second single, ‘Katarina’s Got My Tongue’, was championed by Tom Robinson - who subsequently played the track on his BBC Radio 6 Music show, ‘BBC Introducing Mixtape’); and playing the forthcoming ButeFest - sharing a bill with Scouting for Girls and the Red Hot Chilli Pipers.

Goodnight Maria

I'M A TRAINED ORATOR
A SKILLED MANIPULATOR
I WAS BORN INTO THE RANKS
WHILE YOU WERE BRED FOR FOOD BANKS
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO WANT FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

I AM A NATURAL LEADER
YOU ARE THE TRUE BELIEVERS
I SEE THEM SCRAPING ON THEIR KNEES
THEY RECOGNISE I’M THE ELITE 
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO WORK FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

HUMAN RECIPROCATOR

I’M A PUBLIC SPEAKER
FORGIVE MY MISDEMEANOURS
MY MASCULINITY - A CRUTCH FOR MEDIOCRITY 
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO BEG FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

YOU ARE THE TRUE BELIEVERS
SO DON’T LISTEN TO RUMOUR
(WELL DRESSED LIKE THAT WOULD YOU BELIEVE HER?)
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO REPENT FOR A THING IN MY LIFE

I HAVE ALL THE DATA
HUMAN RECIPROCATOR
I HAVE FRIENDS IN SUCH HIGH PLACES
THAT MY PRIVILEGE ERASED IT
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO ANSWER FOR A THING IN MY LIFE

I CAN RADIATE IT
I WON’T RECIPROCATE IT
I WILL ASK OF YOU THE THINGS I’LL NEVER EVER EVER DO
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO WAIT FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

I WAS BORN INTO THE RANKS
I SEE YOU SCRAPING ON YOUR KNEES
YOU RECOGNISE I’M THE ELITE 
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO WAIT FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

EL MAESTRO
Una vez el viento más atronador 
habitó dentro de mí. 
Por esos tiempos no pude escuchar mis ideas, 
tuve que seguir las tuyas. 

Y si acaso podría creer en algo, 
me gustaría creer 
que al pie de la montaña 
hay alguien que me espera 
para enseñarme a ver a través, 
para enseñarme a ver. 

Un ave, un manto, perla de terror, 
aulló dentro de mí, 
mi perro lazarillo me abandonó, 
tuve que guiarme con tu voz. 

Y si acaso podría creer en algo, 
me gustaría creer 
que al pie de la montaña 
hay alguien que me espera 
para enseñarme a ver a través, 
para enseñarme a ver. 

Debo cambiar
Necesito empezar algo nuevo. 
Debo cambiar 
Necesito empezar hoy. 
Debo cambiar 
Necesito empezar algo nuevo. 
Debo cambiar 
Necesito empezar hoy. 

Y si acaso podría creer en algo, 
me gustaría creer 
que al pie de la montaña 
hay alguien que me espera 
para enseñarme a ver a través. 
Y si acaso podría deberte algo, 
como un impuesto de fe, 
sabría que no hay dinero para pagarte eso, 
tú me enseñaste a ver a través, 
tú me enseñaste a ver, a ver quién soy.
