Evoking New York noise rockers Sonic Youth, Am-Rep favorites like the Jesus Lizard and the stomp of Houdini-era Melvins, All the Saints' latest single "Gold" — which Revolver is premiering below — is nothing short of a full-on seminar on ripping guitars soaked with melody and plenty of distorted fuzz.
Opening with a crunchy bassline, the band slithers along with an overblown guitar fuzz while guitarist-vocalist Matt Lambert delivers a melancholic verse that is almost antithetical to the bludgeoning guitars. But somehow it works, and well. Halfway through, the band switches gears into a section that could fit onto a pensive Mogwai song, before the gray clouds return and the band brings back the thunder.
Stream "Gold" for the first time below, culled from the band's Look Like You're Going Somewhere LP due via Chunklet on June 25th (preorder yours).
