CYMBALS will launch their album with a headline show in London in February.
2nd Feb 2014 - Electrowerkz, London - www.wegottickets.com/event/246573

<b>Press release</b>
The long-awaited new album from CYMBALS is named after a book by Princeton academic, Daniel T. Rodgers, which addresses the fragmentation of ideas towards the end of the last century and how collective meanings have become uncertain.  Singer and guitarist Jack Cleverly writes: "It hit me that I often feel paralysed by the feeling that everything is 'too complicated', and that many people I know feel that paralysis. I realised that this way of thinking can be traced through these songs." 

Produced by Dreamtrak (Swim Deep, Chad Valley, Hot Chip) in his Hackney studio and written collectively over the last 12-months, the group have taken their time to carefully piece the album together, song-by-song, in sequence. The album was completed following a final mix from Daniel Rejmer (Foals, Everything Everything) and the result is testament to the band’s attention to detail: a cleaner, brighter sound than their brattier early recordings, edging towards the European sophistication of the end-of-the-century French house Jack grew up around. Singles 'Like An Animal', 'The End' and 'The Natural World' are characterized by an upbeat disco cool and all push the 7-minute mark, whereas ‘Winter 98’, ‘This City’, and ‘Call Me’ are brooding, stark synth-led numbers reminiscent of early-New Order, with some lyrics sung in Jack’s native French.

The literary inspiration runs further through the album. The track ‘The 5%’, more obviously making reference to the themes of the album's namesake, declares “Time can be erased, you’re stupid if you try and stay in place,” over a pulsing bassline and swirling electronics.  ‘Like an Animal’ is inspired by the intellectual and moral confusion of the main character in Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain. The album has even garnered literary responses of its own by British poet and novelist Joe Dunthorne, author of Submarine.

“I told Joe about the book and the way the album was kind of a reaction to it, and he threw my rationalisation of it back at me through a short story inspired by the album.” says Cleverly. “It helped reveal the emotional territory of the songs. He showed me how I had been dividing things up artificially - desires and priorities, getting older and not being able to stop writing music…”
 
Through the writing of this album, CYMBALS have inevitably matured. “We've never been in it just for a laugh," says Cleverly; “but things got confused when we said we wanted to keep it fun – we just didn't want to end up bitter, having chased a hollow dream.  But this album is less about us; it's more outward looking, more aware of the world at large."  

Despite the weighty literary influences, the band are keen to separate themselves from the over-earnestness that can sometimes accompany such associations.  “I hate the whole 'serious earnest-singer-songwriter-thing,’” says Jack. “With this album I really wanted to get away from that and make music that makes people want to dance and feel joy. Neil's kick drum is the most important thing we have to say as a band. Is this all "fun"?  Yes, of course, but at the same time, not just that."

You Change with the Seasons

After receiving so much hype around the release of their recent single, Wet My Tongue, Danish electro-pop duo going by the name of Feel Freeze are set to break waves in the UK whilst continuing their successful rise back in Denmark. Scandinavian music is a treasure trove for new talent and Feel Freeze are the perfect example of this, following in the footsteps of the likes of The Knife and Lykke Li- there are big things coming for this dreamy pop pair. The duo consisting of Mathias Vinther Liholt and Raymonde Gaunoux have received praise for their memorable live performances, supporting the likes of Thomas Dybdahl and Cymbals Eat Guitars. 

Their latest single, Give Me Your Heart, is a Work Drugs-esque indie pop track, with a touch of glo-fi. Whilst the piece takes a different turn to their previous single, it completely confirmed that Feel Freeze’s spectre of sound is wide and varied, with Summer Heart sonic similarities. Lyrically, the track gives out wonderfully uplifting, feel good vibes – with the lyrics “You’re not asleep, you’re deeply awake” guaranteed to be stuck in your brain all day. 

Give Me Your Heart will be released via Swedish label Icons Creating Evil Art.

Give Me Your Heart

Feel Freeze - Give Me Your Heart

VERSE I
I find myself in corridors
A paper maze of points in time, 
each end begins another
My history books they never lie
But what’s the use
When it’s a heart you use for eyes

CHORUS
Hello, hello 
I miss your face, the longer we go
Hello, hello
Don’t run away, you’re all I know (why)
Hello, hello
Don’t jump the gun, and say that we’re done
Hello, hello
Is this the day, we say goodbye?

VERSE II
I wrote my story, wrote it well
A fiction only in my mind, 
the truth was quite another
So let’s go dancing at the start
Forget the page
Where you burned down all the lines

We Kept The Lights On

What I saw on the mountain, I will never forget
The rising fire, came to settle my debt
But I was starving, so I ate the dirt
It felt like freedom, and it tasted like hurt

I can't swallow my pride
It'll burn me inside
When there's no place to hide
Across the divide
I can't swallow my pride

You're on the other side, and I'm looking in
We never had the time, the time to begin
You packed your bags, you closed the door
Why would you say, you wouldn't come back any more?

I can't swallow my pride
It'll burn me inside
When there's no place to hide
Across the divide
I can't swallow my pride
It'll burn me inside
When there's no place to hide
Across the divide
I can't swallow my pride

I'm living on borrowed time (refrain)

I can't swallow my pride
It'll burn me inside
When there's no place to hide
Across the divide
I can't swallow my pride
It'll burn me inside
When there's no place to hide
Across the divide
I can't swallow my pride

Lyrics:

Oh, no you're not much more
Than putty at my fingertips
You thought you knew this story
And suddenly it feels like no one ever liked you

Cold, cold like never before
Biting at my fingernails
Eyes glued to the floor
It's racing on your heels this ain't a normal lunch date
This meal is ending with your heartbreak

Hey I know I'm not a saint
But I'll do right tonight
#wastehistime
But I can't see you cry
I'm begging for the strength
To look you in the eye
#wastehistime
But I can't stand no

Oh, I've been through this before
Done things to guilt my sleep away
Broken oaths I'd sworn
And honestly it feels like hell with every heartbreak
I'll heal and make another mistake

Hey I know I'm not a saint
But I'll do right tonight
#wastehistime
But I can't see you cry
I'm begging for the strength
To look you in the eye
#wastehistime
But I can't stand no

Oh
I don't wanna waste his time
I don't wanna see him cry
I just wanna do it right
(I don't wanna take any more of your time)
(Tic-tac-toe I'm x-ing out your heart I know your turn is over)
'Cause I can't stand no

Hey I know I'm not a saint
But I'll do right tonight
#wastehistime
But I can't see you cry
I'm begging for the strength
To look you in the eye
#wastehistime
But I can't stand no

#wastehistime

OUT NOW! Download: https://shynature.bandcamp.com/album/my-christmas-tree-is-looking-at-me

It's Christmas time
And my head's in the clouds
I can't get to sleep
I've been awake for hours
My sister's sleeping
She's older than me
She's not as excited
She lost the mystery

I have a stocking
Hanging under a tree
And it's 5am
So I'm going to see
But my mum and dad said
Do not disturb
It is so frustrating
When I wake up first

There's a festive cheer
And a drunk reindeer
And a Christmas cracker
It looks nice in here
It's a battleground
Of presents going round
Hanging chocolate things
Next to the angel's wings

Fake laughter rings
And no-one wants to sing
Playing video games
And he's going to win
The year's drying up
And you're losing your hair
The warm's wearing off
It's getting colder in here

The Christmas tree
Oh is looking at me
Those golden days
Won't last forever
Oh those Christmas lights
That keep me up all night
Those magic times
Won't be magic forever

My Christmas Tree (Is Looking At Me)

Put that woollen beanie hat of festive prospects back on as The Golden Dregs return for further cheer by rolling in day 12 of our ARTVENT CALENDAR.

A Very Golden Christmas is the seasonal EP from Falmouth's nautical maestros, and "Part 2 - Blue Christmas" continues the refrigeration of the chilly chunes. If you're unfamiliar with the group, they're built around core-crooner Benjamin J Woods and feature a cast of additional local favourites / AIH alumni so impressive that even Santa would find it tough to rally them into his sack.

Free download! 
The saga continues soon!
Vive Le Vent!

When pillow talks turn to pillow fights

I'll go to sleep tomorrow.
