Sunshine Frisbee Laserbeam seem to tap into the sweet, innocent thrills guitar music can offer.
That doesn't make them twee, however – far from it, with their previous records hitting harder than most.
New album 'Blackout Cowboy' out via By The Time It Gets Dark on November 9th (pre-order LINK), and it conjures visions of Teenage Fanclub, Swervedriver, Guided By Voices, and more.
Reflecting their newly expanded line up, it's a tad more ambitious, more confident than their debut, while retaining that frayed-at-the-edges charm.
New single 'Meatloaf To The Camera' channels the band's innate melodic charm through a few beat up Big Muff pedals, a love song in reverse that portrays a "doomed relationship" while retaining an incessant optimism.
The band's Pete Dixon offers some insight to the track; “It’s about a doomed relationship, like a love song but where things just get worse from the moment it starts.
Kind of the reverse of the usual love ballad, it changes key at the end which I like to think represents that optimism of picking yourself up and trying again.”
Tune in now.
