Music News - Wax Chattels Release Stay Disappointed 7" And Announce Signing To Flying Nun / Captured Tracks
15 February 2018 - 0 Comments
On the 5th Anniversary of
the label partnership between New Zealand's Flying Nun Records and
Brooklyn-based Captured Tracks, we are happy to announce the co-signing of
Auckland's
Wax Chattels – a first for each label.
When Captured
Tracks head honcho, Mike Sniper, came to New Zealand last
year he saw just 3 songs from the band's performance at
The Others Way Festivaland was hooked. Within 24 hours wheels were in motion and now we are pleased to
announce this joint signing, and a limited edition 7" featuring the
bands' lasted single,
Stay
Disappointed.
The
band may not have a guitar player, though you wouldn't know it based on
their overwhelming sound and energy. They create an atmosphere akin to a
traditional loud power trio – except their music is anything but
traditional.
The keyboard, bass and drums trio create darkly hypnotic
and frenetic music that's rhythmically complex and sinister with the
track Stay
Disappointed recalling that other side of Kiwi
underground rock history, the one that's a bit less sunny and a bit less
jangly.
The
track is available on a limited edition, hand-stamped, one-sided 7". Available
here.
