HOLD MY HAND AND DON’T LET GO
you’re on the last lap. it’s a big race - a big race. feel the adrenaline. feel the power. feeeeel that burning in your stomach. feel the energy. that’s what comes across listening to babe shadow. it’s uplifting, it’s energising - it makes you want to race, ok! goddamit, where’s the sports car?
away from trivial pursuit (quite literally, in the case of the automobile), babe shadow are a band to get really excited about. they’re the kind of band that come out of nowhere, like that massive alligator in lake placid (ANYBODY SEE THAT COMING?). or a better example perhaps would be lake placid 2 - that literally came out of nowhere. one big crocodile is JUST ABOUT ENOUGH GIANT CROCS FOR A LIFETIME. thank you.
these guys have come from their lake (or forest/woods/tower block) and have carved quite a route. they’ve skipped their way into smash and grab, supporting i blame coco. they’ve jumped on the luv bandwagon (mgmt stylee - with florence). and they’re rocketing off on the ‘cosmic love’ tour very soon indeed. first, they come and give us east end lovers some tunes to romanticize along to.
to say we’re excited would be a massive understatement.
