LIST PICK

COSMIC STRIP HEAVENLY

Fans of Slowdive, Mazzy Star and Pinkshinyultrablast should pay close attention to 'Heavenly', the new single from London shoegazers Cosmic Strip. Opening with a driving, roomy drum beat, reverb-drenched guitar picking and a subtly fuzzy bass line, it's not long before singer Camella Agabalyan's smoky vocals steal your heart as they soar above the mix. Described by Agabalyan as "a song dedicated to the addictive feeling of your first love...", 'Heavenly' weaves between quieter, ethereal moments, climactic build-ups and dark, psychedelic interludes before reaching its cathartic conclusion. -Holly Mullineaux
