Cool Ghouls - Creature That I Am

Someone is watching

There are strangers in my house
They came through the water as I crossed over

Now all my little strangers like children dance with me They're playing ring­a­rosy
All fall down inside of me

Blood of my blood, Flesh of my flesh We are one My passenger
And I think the stars
Are peepholes in the firmament

Someone is watching

I heard your footsteps on the wooden floor
But I couldn't face what was behind the door
When the student is ready, the teacher will appear I have many spirits and they're always near

Blood of my blood, Flesh of my flesh 
We are one My passenger

And I think the stars
Are peepholes in the firmament

Someone is watching

"Madeline Steinberg’s voice may be saccharine, but her exasperation is hardly veiled as she opens the record over Zoe Camp’s steadying bassline: “This one time you asked me if we could go for a ride / this one time I told you you’re not on my mind.” It sounds like a clear rejection letter, but ambivalence seeps into her voice, and soon she’s telling the other party to “take me away” over Miguel Gallego’s soft supporting vocals."
Impose on Go Away

-----------------------------------

Drug Pizza are a four piece from NYC who formed whilst all working at the same radio station. Having snuck in out of hours to record their first EP (released in 2013), they've finally returned with a follow up - Return to Content Mountain - which marks a (slightly) more refined side to the slacker jams of their debut.

The band are previewing the EP with 'No Reaction' - a chugging Weezer-indebted pop song where singer Madeline Steinberg goes from not caring about someone breaking their arm to vowing to carve their name into her body. Jury's out on whether it's the same person.

The band describe the EP's themes as obsession, self-defeat, power, and anxiety and across the 5 tracks they definitely put in a good attempt at tackling each one whilst throwing in a whole range of influences (as you would expect from a band that met whilst working at a radio station). As well as the band's listed influences (Sleater-Kinney, Television, Pixies, Nancy Sinatra) there are pepperings of Pavement throughout and as Sinister on their last release showed, they've been doing that whole Diet Cig thing long before they started plotting world domination.

The EP is set for release on 18 March 2016 and will be jointly released by Art is Hard (UK) and Negative Fun (US).
