Track Of The Day 31/8 – Scarlet Rascal

'Strange'

Somewhere between definition and suggestion, that's where you'll find Scarlet Rascal.

The band swing between the taut, electric lead of Tom Verlaine and the glacial swathes of Kevin Shields, while mapping out their own vantage point.

Working with Invada on new material, the band's brutal poetry reaches back to the post-punk era while still retaining a very unique, and modern stance.

Clash is able to premiere new cut 'Strange' and it's exactly that: strange, left of centre, oddly difficult to define.

The band explain: "The video is a kind of stream of consciousness of police corruption and un-holy sex acts…"

Check it out now.

Scarlet Rascal's self-titled album will be released on September 30th.
