MEGA EMOTION / LADY DI - 'MOVE MOTHERFUCKER / I KNOW YOU KNOW I'M PERFECT'

Details

**NEW RELEASE DATE 18TH SEP**Mega Emotion and Lady Di are two alter-ego bands, made up of exactly the same personnel – Lisa Horton, Jan Robertson and Iain Ross (all ex-Bearsuit: Fortuna Pop / Fantastic Plastic). While Mega Emotion bring psychedelic stage-wear and icy electro pop, Lady Di offer the opposite – plaid shirts, drunk summer nights and melodic grunge punk. This split vinyl release is the debut album for both bands. Mega Emotion are the robe-wearing cult that formed after the apocalypse passed by. They build walls of sound that loop live and electronic drums against synths and scuzzy guitars. They have won Steve Lamacq’s roundtable, been playlisted across 6 Music and supported the likes of Acid Mothers Temple, Shonen Knife, Thumpers and Lonelady. The trio compare their sound to Metronomy, New Order, Chvrches, The Knife and Battles. Lady Di play grungy, dumb-ass punk – inspired by the likes of The Breeders, Urusei Yatsura and The Lemonheads. Inspired by the likes of Dinosaur Junior, The Breeders, Urusei Yatsura and The Lemonheads, Lady Di promise slacker-pop, summer nights, chaotic noise, cherry lip balm and hearts on fire. They started last year and have already supported the likes of Part Chimp, Mammoth Penguins and The Burning Hell. 140g transparent magenta vinyl with download code

SPECIAL INTEREST - 'THE PASSION OF'

Details

But would you bat an eye, waiting for war machines to pass you by? But aren’t we going out tonight? Aren’t we going out?"" Special Interest have returned with their sophomore LP. A dual release from Night School (UK) and Thrilling Living (US), The Passion Of... combines elements of glam rock and no wave pushed through a mangled filter of contemporary electronic forms. Special Interest present a precise and deranged vision of punk, an apocalyptic celebration, a step forward into a perverse and uncertain landscape. Recorded throughout 2019 with engineer James Whitten, The Passion Of finds the band with a fuller realization of their sound. While their debut, Quintron-produced, album Spiraling documented a band discovering their purpose, The Passion Of… is both more chaotic and melodic, daring to finally live up to their notorious wall-of-sound live performances. Massive, juddering beats from an old Electribe sampler and distorted bass provide much of the rhythmic backbone. The effect is purely physical, circumnavigating the brain and heading straight to the body’s core, sounding at times like an Industrial take on the most brutal Gabber 12”s from the Groningen hardcore underground. Crass, decolonized guitar work and haunting synth lines cut through the low end noise to serve the album’s layers of drama. It’s a cloying, intense dynamic that builds to almost unbearable fever pitch at points, threatening to overwhelm and overpower. Aided by mastering work by Rashad Becker, The Passion Of… is a true document of Special Interest as the intense and radical unit they are. Alli Logout’s razor sharp lyrics drip with the collective lust for life in the midst of painful truths. Offering moments of clarity and hope in their signature bratty maladjusted manner, switching from high camp satire to insightful political imperatives often within the course of one song. The Passion Of... takes you on an odyssey, from celebrating the highs and lows of hedonism (Disco III), to dystopian anthems (All Tomorrow’s Carry) and disillusioned love songs (Street Pulse Beat). Ending in a powerful final decree (With Love) offering visions and desires for futures to come. The Passion Of... is a culmination of Special Interest’s long standing obsessions. Not just bearing witness but living and moving towards our innate desire for rapture in an urgent and raw testimony of the here and now. "Beyond blood we fight towards liberation"

BSCBR - 'MASTER OF REHEARSAL'

Formats

• FC053 - 7"

Details

BSCBR is a group of Black Sabbath lovers hailing from New York City. The group consists of Brad Truax (Interpol), Mick Barr (Ocrilim, Krallice), Greg Fox (Liturgy, Ex Eye), Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs), and Angel Deradoorian (Dirty Projectors, Deradoorian). After a music residency in Berlin where Zinner, Deradoorian, and Fox met up, the first formation of the band was created. Zinner had the idea of bringing the music to NYC (when Truax and Barr joined) where the band received immediate attention and sold out their first concert. It was surprising for everyone, but they just kept on playing, and the people kept on showing up. It's been one of their favorite bands to play in ever. The love of Sabbath has brought so much joy to this group and there's no greater feeling than spreading that joy to fellow fans.
