Say Sue Me release their new single Your Book on October 4th 2019. It’s backed with Good People. On Your Book the band refrain from the surf rock/rock ‘n roll that has infused their recent releases and return to their alternative rock and shoegazing roots. It’s a melodic track that is slow burning only being interrupted by a frantic burst of guitars before pausing and returning on it’s path. The calm, assured vocals suit the desolate words. Your Book is available to pre-order from Damnably in 7″ yellow vinyl and digital formats. Facebook Continue reading Say Sue Me – Your Book
Excellent double sided new single from Busan’s Say Sue Me. Just Joking Around is a slow burning ballad before suddenly exploding into a frenzy of guitar riffs. Plenty of Pavement and Pale Saint influences on this one. Flip side B-Lover on the other hand is a fuzzy C86 laden affair which sees the band returning to the sound that grabbed me in the first place. Say Sue Me show no signs of letting up whatsoever. Just Joking Around/B-Lover is available as limited edition vinyl plus the usual digital formats. Order it from here. Facebook Continue reading Say Sue Me – Just Joking Around/B-Lover
