Gilla band announce their new album Most Normal, to be released on October 7th. It will be available on limited edition blue vinyl and an exclusive alt cover white vinyl, limited to 1,000 copies. Pre-order here.
First single ‘Eight Fivers’ announces itself in that typical Gilla Band way where the lyrics often feel abstracted from the music. Dara Kiely’s voice is two opposing forces at once. In some ways it’s the album’s most memorable track for how instant it sounds and simple it feels, however, it’s idiosyncratic enough to create its own peculiar feel.
For their first album as Gilla Band, the foursome has redrawn their own paradigm. Most Normal is like little you’ve heard before, a kaleidoscopic spectrum of noise put in service of broken pop songs, FX-strafed Avant-punk rollercoaster rides and passages of futurist dance-floor nihilism.
