Ganglians' New Single Candy Girl

• 25th Mar 2010

Sacramento’s Ganglians want an island somewhere where they can soak in the sun and prowl the canopy by night. It’s not often that they do get out, but they can get down for that.

They’ll be releasing the single ‘Candy Girl’ on April 12th, then they’ll be releasing the album ‘Monster Head Room’ on May 10th and they’re also touring Europe throughout May and June, taking in 2 UK runs and an appearance at Primavera.

Recording sometimes as one, sometimes as four it’s a real game to figure out where the entity comes from and where it’s going. First and foremost it’s about uncertain pleasures. It’s a bit like choose your own adventure.

There’s “codeine balladry”; a slightly upsetting tempo that is quickly flushed into an aural high, the next moment you’re in the toy strewn abyss of the bedroom and then out to the tribal caves of the natives. The planets align and the sun beats down, palms tingling, and you are on the island they’ve built, the scenery constantly shifting for a better view, of you.
