Weirdness
Check this rather odd blog...!
1st August
The "Like I Said" EP is out on 1st August, on I Wish I Was Unpopular Records. It'll be available to buy from Unpopular after that date.
Tracklist:
1. Interference
2. It Was Summer
3. The Last Dance
Here's a review from the next issue of Is This Music? magazine, due out 1st August, too:
Electrum
LIke I Said EP
(I Wish I Was Unpopular)
Debut EP from a band comprised of former members of Slowloris - as may be obvious from Caireen's prominent and multi-faceted vocals, at times breathy but insistent as she intones on the politics of relationship. Also present and correct is Jamie, whipping up a maelstrom at the back - a more aggressive attack than might be expected, as layered guitar sets up a wall of noise and lays delicate fretwork over the top. However, the main talking point is the 3 beautifully melodic pop tunes.
4/5

Is this Music?
So I guess cats are out of the bag as to our identities... I should point out that Caireen does at least half the guitaring on the EP - the rhythm part on Interference, the lead part on It Was Summer and the rhythm on The Last Dance (and piano).
The 7" on Unpopular is still planned for October. Can't remember if we've blogged that before, but now you know. "Whatever Happens, Happens" / "Despite This" is our next release.
