BALMING EVIE PERFUME PAUL

Consisting of long-time friends and collaborators Karl Jawara and Joshua Rothberger, London-born maximalists Balming Evie deliver a rapid dose of psychedelic wonder with 'Perfume Paul'. Certain to go down a storm live, the energetic concoction sounds like a feasible outcome of a jam between Animal Collective, King Giz and Thee Oh Sees (or however they're spelling it these days). Powered by a motorik drum pattern, fuzzy synths add textural, modular edge as addictive guitar work punctuates the full-throttle offering. The band explain: “‘Perfume Paul’ is definitely about release and the many places that can take you, so it felt right to ramp things up a bit”. Listen here now. -Holly Mullineaux
