[Weekly Mix] 2021.11 (1)

TALK IT OUT 

You talk, I cry, you bleed, I die
Your thoughts, my mind
My life’s not mine

Take me away from this place 
where my hearts on my sleeve and my eyes are opaque
Your thoughts my mind
My life’s not mine

Several times I want out I may seem the same
but I’m different today 
I need to talk it out, talk it out
Talk it out, talk it out

Your eyes, I’m blind, your sense, I try
Help me to see, I need company

Take me away from this place 
where my hearts on my sleeve and my eyes are opaque
Your thoughts, my mind
My life’s not mine
My life’s not mine
My life’s not mine 

Several times I want out I may seem the same
but I’m different today 
I need to talk it out, talk it out
Talk it out, talk it out
Talk it out, talk it out
Talk it out, talk it out 

You bleed, I die
Your thoughts, my mind
My life’s not mine
Your thoughts, my mind 
My life’s not mine
Your thoughts, my mind
My life’s not mine
Your thoughts, my mind

Following the release of their debut EP ‘Scene Change’, Sydney-based duo Salarymen have dropped a new single ‘All in Vain’ and accompanying video via Scenic Drive Records, as premiered on Triple J Home & Hosed. 

‘All in Vain’ represents a new era for Salarymen, transitioning into a more sophisticated sound, while maintaining their signature harmonies and synth-driven rhythms. The song makes an instant impact with undeniably catchy melodies and bright, summery riffs, which build up to an emphatic ending and leave the listener wanting more. Placing Renee’s songwriting abilities front and centre, ‘All in Vain’ rounds out with a set of powerful, climbing vocal lines, which reach dizzying heights.

Co-vocalist and bassist Renee de la Motte explains the meaning behind the song:

“All in vain is a frank reflection on how much social media has crept into our lives, and placed pressure on us to look better and be present, all of the time. As a society, it has increased our narcissistic tendencies and driven us to compete with other people. What someone puts out on Instagram might look amazing, but in many cases they can be deeply insecure and unhappy with themselves. These platforms have become a constant force reminding people of what they lack, and this track is an uplifting reminder not to worry about what people think of you on the internet. You’re cool the way you are!”

Catastrophe & Cure have been at the top of their game for almost a decade now. With their 2020 album Somewhere Down the Line the quintet has rekindled its love for guitar driven-songwriting. Their latest single Cracks in the Pavement is a powerful indie rock song with driving drums, jingly guitars, subtle but elegant vocal melodies and just the right amount of a 90s vibe. For the first time, Catastrophe & Cure teamed up with one of Austria’s brightest musical talents, Katrin Paucz of the band Sharktank, whose vocal performance gives the chorus that certain something. Lyrically, Cracks in the Pavement is a song about growing older and feeling stuck. Nevertheless, it is also a song that doesn’t leave you void of any hope, but with the possibility of a new beginning.

LYRICS
Mistakes we make always get in our way
But what use is a life in decay
Always afraid it’ll happen again someday
No two tears fall alike or so you say

You’re your own worst enemy
When you dive headfirst
So recklessly, so recklessly
You’re your own worst enemy

Tell yourself how sure you are until it’s true
Between breaths, I’ll pause
To tell myself all night through

What's out of sight is out of mind
I’m out of time, out of time

You’re your own worst enemy
When you dive headfirst
So recklessly, so recklessly
You’re your own worst enemy

Mint Julep - So You Say

One thought to start the day
Breath in and out
Easily
Freely

Two steps you're on your way
Its not so hard
Keep it simple
And a little bit mystical

And in one moment
to let it through
a bit of peace
and a kiss for you

And just for now
Don't think
Have a little trust
A little hope

Pacific, based in Manchester, UK are carving their own arena in the industry with their unique blend of alternative, piano-infused rock and indie nuances.

Having been spun on BBC Radio 1 by Huw Stephens, featured in Apple Music’s Breaking Rock editorial playlist for much of 2020, covered in METRO - "New band Pacific are proving indie music is getting a much needed coming back” - and after winning the national vote to play Y Not Festival from 1,000s of acts in 2019, it is clear that the best is yet to come for this rising band.

With an appetite for anthems, the band’s electrifyingly immediate singles have brought in strong backing. Regarding radio, Pacific’s 2020 tunes were championed by BBC Introducing from Manchester, including multiple spins and a live session, plus further Introducing spins from Dave Monks at BBC Merseyside and Rob Adcock at BBC Stoke. Additional industry support last year came from Gigwise, XS Manchester, Tom Robinson’s Fresh on the Net, Amazing Radio and Jack FM.

Adapting to the times, Pacific have been in virtual high-demand; the band recently released a cover video series in partnership with Blackstar Amps titled “90 Sec Anthems”. Moreover, Pacific were invited to play virtual live sets throughout 2020 - Liverpool Sound City’s ‘Guest House’, the official online afterparty for Manchester Arena’s 25th Anniversary, the virtual Chester Live Festival, and a live Jimmy’s Instagram takeover.

Also championing Pacific are Salford City F.C., using the band’s music for the past two years in their social media video material. This only adds to the band’s football acclaim – frequenting pre-match stadium playlists at Manchester United and Brentford F.C., as well as performing at Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium on the City Square stage.

Pacific headline Gorilla, Manchester in 2021, following three sell-out headline shows in the area before lockdown, with a flurry of main support slots to The Blinders, All Tvvins and Red Rum Club. Festival dates at Liverpool Sound City and Hit the North Festival are also to be rescheduled.

“Pacific have hit on a winning formula… which shows just how much an indie band that revolves around a piano can do” – Gigwise

“These guys are bound for glory and their tracks are sure to become anthems” – Wolf in a Suit
