Granted you've probably heard of Golden Silvers many times before, but just let me rant with a wry smile fixated on your lips...I'd heard their name peppered around the internet and amongst the "NEWBANDOMG!" pages of magazines for many a month, thinking it was just another of those noisy techy bands we're now plagued with after last years' happenings, sighing and shaking my head all the while.
Oh the vanity.
When I finally decided to settle the issue, the first song I heard was obviously Y&LC relased single Arrows Of Eros. I was in love. Not only did it have some heavy synths within seconds of beginning but following this was Gwylim Gold's distinctive North London vocals, and yes, his second name really is Gold. Lucky bastard.
I have my fingers firmly crossed in the vain hope that all the support slots (Crystal Castles etc) they've been having recently won't lead to an influx of fans who still believe that raves exist.
They're supporting Mystery Jets on their October/November tour and released new single Magic Touch last Monday (20th) on a 7" purple vinyl. Fancy! And to add to all the metallic luvin' these boys have got it'll be out on their very own Bronze Records.
Listen to the magnificient Arrows of Eros here.
