There are a number of brilliant young bands doing amazing stuff right now, but there is something about Squid that just absolutely blows our minds, we honestly can not rave about this enough.
Squid return with ‘Broadcaster’, the AA-side companion to their recent offering ‘Sludge’.
+ Limited edition 10” in paper inner with printed outer sleeve.
‘Broadcaster’ is built around an arpeggiated synth sequence that was conceived during a writing session in a woodland cabin by Arthur whilst the rest of the band were out hiking. As the song develops, guitars, drum machines and delays join the fray, pushing the track into its chaotic and visceral crescendo. All this works as the perfect foil to singer Ollie Judge’s oblique lyrics. Paired with their richly percussive and sonically evolving ‘Sludge’, the quintet not only opens up their sound, but they do so without abandoning the experimentation and playfulness that made them such an exciting prospect when they burst on the scene just over a year ago.
