BALLEY 008CD
|
London's Crows are the latest signing to Balley Records (IDLES, Heavy Lungs, Lice) and deliver their long-awaited debut album, Silver Tongues. The album's thrilling first single "Chain Of Being", was recently Lamacq's Livener on 6 Music, and is a real statement: a widescreen slice of post-punk that combines heaviness and brooding melody in equal measures. Joe Talbot said the following of his decision to sign Crows to his Balley Records label: "I saw them play at the Louisiana in Bristol a few years ago and both the performance and the quality of their songs blew me away. Everything about them excites me; when I heard they were looking to release an album, I had no choice but to chase them. It's a dream to work with them."

BALLEY 007CD

Bristol's Lice are the first signing to Balley Records -- the label run by IDLES' Joe Talbot. Drawing influence from an abrasive clutch of early post-punk groups such as The Fall, Psychic TV, Pere Ubu, and PIL, Lice's lyrics deal with subjects such as xenophobia and misogyny through first-person monologues and short-stories (designed to confront listeners with their own hateful impulses and biases). Originally released as two limited-edition CD EPs, this "early years" collection features the songs that have comprised their live set from 2016 to 2018, having been honed, changed, and finally completed. "unmissable: Lice play rockabilly hysteria at an unsustainable pace that collapses deliciously into swampy exhaustion." --The Guardian CD version includes four bonus tracks.
