Saddle Creek signings Disq have set loose the lead track from their excellently-titled forthcoming sophomore record Desperately Imagining Someplace Quiet. Powered along by snappy beats, 'Cujo Kiddies' shares some of the satisfyingly disjointed sonics of Deerhoof, but with tangibly more accessible vocal melodies. Bass guitar thuds continuously in the background, creating a sense of urgency, similar to that nagging feeling at the back of your mind when you've forgotten something, and whilst there's an undeniable sense of the surrealism about the piece, particularly as it descends into an unexpectedly disco-flavoured interlude, somehow it all makes sense. Sharing valuable insight, bassist/songwriter and vocalist Raina Bock explains: "I wrote the first half of ‘Cujo’ from deep inside the hole of substance abuse and loneliness. The song was meant to function as a blueprint for how I wished my reality could look. Six months later, sitting in an ocean of boxes all packed up for what would be my fourth time moving that year, I wrote the second half...The experience inspired what I hope to be my lifelong approach to songwriting going forward…To write songs not with the goal of reflecting on where I am at a given moment, but as a tool to pull myself out of the way things are and toward the way I’d like them to be...I wrote ‘Cujo Kiddies’ for nobody else’s ears but my own, so while it is now making its way out into a strange world where I am not the only living person on earth, I truly from the bottom of my heart hope you all enjoy— but if you don’t, rest easy in knowing that it is no skin off the author’s back either way. This song has already done everything I could have ever hoped it would.” -Holly Mullineaux
