New Music First! The Big Pink
After featuring on many tastemakers ‘to watch’ list at the start of the year, London based duo The Big Pink look set to release what will surely be a contender for album of the year. Robbie Furze & Milo Cordell decamped to New York and the hallowed walls of Electric Lady studios - originally built by Jimi Hendrix and previously host to the likes of David Bowie, Led Zeppelin and The Clash. ‘A Brief History Of Love’ is a staggering and assured debut album, evoking the dreamy sonic landscapes crafted by My Bloody Valentine and The Jesus & Mary Chain. Recorded with Rich Costey (Muse, Interpol) the pair have produced a clutch of songs that will quash any doubts about the hype they have generated.
The album is released on September 14th through 4AD and is preceded by the single ‘Dominos’. For a preview of the album click on the player below. For more information about the band head to their website.
