The Lurkers - 'The Boys In The Corner' c/w 'We Close The Door' (Ltd. silver 7" - 600 copies only!)

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL LURKERS - THAT'S PETE STRIDE, NIGEL MOORE & ESSO

The second single to be taken from their critically acclaimed 2020 album Sex Crazy, as featured in Vive Le Rock's albums of the year.

The cover may bring back some memories if you’re old enough!

We asked the band about the single…The Boys In The Corner’ - is that auto-biographical in any way? It reminds us of drinking songs from years ago, like the Pogues or ‘Little Old Wine Drinker Me’ what do you think?

Pete: Yeah it is totally autobiographical, but I believe that many people will identify with the lyrics, which have been somewhat magnified by this Covid situation. The early versions of the song were actually much slower than this finished version, but they seemed a touch maudlin and solemn, so we decided to rock it up a bit and this worked well, adding a little defiance and celebration to the song.

Nigel: It’s simply a song about good friends that are no longer with us something we all experience sadly. The song is a tribute to them.

Esso: I like it too, it’s sad, Pete wrote it.

The Lurkers - Electrical Guitar (7")

AND NEXT OUT ON DAMAGED GOODS it's the wonderful new single from THE COURETTES, out 30/4/21

The Courettes - Hop The Twig - Limited to 1000 copies on ORANGE vinyl!

 

Look out! Look out! Look out! It´s 'HOP THE TWIG'! And it´s coming FAST!

'Hop The Twig' is The Courettes´ brand new single! An exciting and groovy blend of garage, early surf music and '60s girlie pop, all wrapped in tons of riot grrrl attitude. Like The Ronettes and The Ramones invite Link Wray and Duane Eddy for a wild party in Gold Star Studios’ echo chamber!

Hop the Twig was slang for dying in the 19th century. A very up-to-date theme in these pandemic times, so the tune has a bit of a dark atmosphere - although you can easily dance to it. Shake off your lockdown blues and enjoy the ride, while you can!

Glorious B Side 'Only Happy When You´re Gone is a Spector-Esque dancefloor Killer!, filled with girl group backing vocals and wall of sound echoes and vibes. And yes, tremolo fuzz atomic guitars are also there!

 

 

And don't forget the band's previous 7" - 'Want You! Like A Cigarette', still available on lovely pink vinyl!

Thanks for reading!

Ian & Duncan
