Bloc Party remix Rapids! track 'Nameless / / Faceless' by Russell Lissack

Bloc Party remix Rapids! track 'Nameless / / Faceless' by Russell Lissack Rapids! are pleased to announce a free download of their Bloc Party remixed new track ‘Nameless / / Faceless’. Here, Russell Lissack offers his own interpretation of the song with a brand new remix, available right now as a free download. It comes as the band gear up to release their new EP ‘Fragments’ on Heist Or Hit Records this August 15th. You can download this remix at the following link, right now:   http://soundcloud.com/heistorhitrecords/rapids_blocparty   Nameless // Faceless is the closing track on Rapids!’ forthcoming ‘Fragments’ EP. Written in the band’s cramped and claustrophobic rehearsal space during the winter of 2010, ‘Fragments’ perfectly soundtracks the daily struggle of life in a sleepy coastal town. With its gushing honesty and striking maturity, Rapids! prove with this EP that they are strong candidates for people's Ones To Watch lists in 2011.   The band recorded in three separate studios during the making of the EP. The job fell on the shoulders of producer/mixer Dave Eringa (Manic Street Preachers, Idlewild) to collect up the fragments and blend them into one.  As the name suggests, each song breaks away into its own bundle of fiery angst.  But it’s when pieced back together that ‘Fragments’ reveals its true force, with each peak and trough taking you on a journey through a troubled mind.   To mark the release, the band will also headline an EP release show at The Bull & Gate, London on Monday 15th Aug http://www.clubfandango.co.uk/gig.php?id=2027

They're well good!" – Huw Stephens BBC Radio 1     ‘’One thing my extended time with Rapids! has afforded me is an increasing love for their EP’’ – Jen Long, BBC Radio 1, Wales   ‘’This debut single (‘Fuses’) bops along to a carefree but angular beat before splitting the joint and launching in to a Bloc Party-esque chorus… ambitious and agile.’’ - Artrocker   "Packed with a math-rock urgency akin to Foals and a dark, anthemic ability, Rapids! are the little brother's of Bloc Party with a more visceral, raw energy to them." –The Fly ****************************************************************************** RAPIDS! are:   Matt Holliday – Vocals/Keyboards Rob Murray – Guitars Steve DaCosta – Guitars Tim Richards  – Bass James Davies – Drums ‘FRAGMENTS’ Track Listing: 1.
