Kid in the Attic // Beat Radio 7"
Brian Sendrowitz of Beat Radio (who we have written about quite a few times) is working to put out more music on his label Awkward for Life Records this year, and this split 7" with Kid in the Attic is the first to be released.
Kid in the Attic start things off with 'Roles Reversed,' a charged song of passion and wistful angst with lead Maia Macdonald's intimate vocals reminiscent of Stars. Confronting relationships and self in all of their uncertainty, the song ditches the pop romance of True and Eternal Love in favour of something less clear and more true, emotions that are susceptible to the erosion of time. "This is how change begins" sings Macdonald, "little light little crack in the door gets in".
Beat Radio's offering sees Sendrowitz combine rock principles with electronics to create a track that sits somewhere between indie pop/rock and Architecture in Helsinki. Unlike many of his peers, for whom the use of synths is a self-indulgent flourish, Sendrowitz builds the track on his electronics, dropping the guitar and drums to a supporting role. As ever with Beat Radio, the lyrics are impassioned and somehow nostalgic, as if written from some time beyond the event where every circumstance, both good and bad, takes on an endearing glow.
The record is out on the 10th March and you can put your order in via the Awkward for Life Bandcamp page.

Very excited to be releasing a split 7" with one of my favourite UK bands, Rolo Tomassi and the equally incredible Stockades from Australia.
