Track Of The Day #642: Girlpool – Chinatown

This not just the most gorgeous thing you’ve heard all day, the way its languid lazy eyed lilt draws you close wrapping you in its seductive entrancement. Its velveteen brush strokes softly smouldering to longing formations that delicately shimmer, to the summer skinned purr of 60’s tonalities that imagine a surrendering Throwing Muses swapping tips and notes with a demurring Strawberry Switchblade. With Clock Strikes 13 and damon and naomi cosily chilling in the studio corner, it’s called ‘Chinatown’ and its by Girlpool and its out next month via Wichita and comes backed by a cover of Radiator Hospital’s ‘Cut your Bangs’.
