Forward-thinkers WILD PALMS, newly signed to OLI, continue to strike while the iron is hot, announcing the release of their second single "Deep Dive" on 19th April, backed with an intriguing take on BJORK's "Human Behaviour".
The new single is the first fruit from studio sessions with Gareth Jones (GRIZZLY BEAR, CLINIC, INTERPOL, WIRE, DEPECHE MODE) with whom the band have been working on their debut album, slated for a September release.
Speaking to NME at the start of February, singer Lou Hill signalled the shape of things to come. "The stuff we are writing now is a complete departure from anything scratchy or angular - it's warm and it's expansive." Saluting CAN, NEW FADS, BEEFHEART, ACR, SONIC YOUTH, TV ON THE RADIO, RADIOHEAD, MBV, LIQUID LIQUID, NEW ORDER and TALKING HEADS, WILD PALMS continue an ethos that runs through from NEU! to FACTORY to FLOWERED UP, carrying with them a rough-edged charm that in no small part comes from roguishly charismatic 23 year old front man, Lou Hill.
