Due for release Aug 1, 2009, this Adelaide band Special Patrol have been busy working hard with Melbourne based producer/engineer Jonathan Burnside at Eastern Bloc Studio on their new album The Strangers Dozen Here’s the first taste of the new album: a double A Side Single: Right On / New Year’s Eve.
Their 2007 sophomore album Handy Hints from the Undertaker received full triple J rotation and Nova crowned them a national unsigned feature act. Last year Special Patrol won the SA final of The MTV Kick-start Awards based on the quality of their live show. With tracks like ”New Years Eve” and “Right On,” this album promises to captivate their fans even more than their previous work. I’m enjoying Myles Mayo’s vocals tonight, so much that I’ve had to listen to “Right On” about 19 times before really hearing the lyrics. But do listen to them, it’s nostalgia inducing little song. …”Every day is easy when I’m never wrong,” indeed.
(And if you can figure out what that video means please let me know! I’m stumped!)
I like the song in that video Tarticles, well spotted. Not as convinced by some of the rest of it, but there’s a lot of good stuff nevertheless. Very Sleepy Jackson in bits.
That’s it! I couldn’t remember the name, but yes, Sleepy Jackson… but the lyrics are better here I think. And congrats for being my 1000th comment on LSB! How appropriate that you should enjoy the honor as you’re the shameful reason for starting this whole endeavor
