"Recorded with long-term collaborator Chris Coady (Yeah Yeah
Yeahs, Zola Jesus, Beach House and TV On The Radio), the single
serves to offer an insight into their forthcoming album and Gang
Gang Dance's personal development since releasing Saint Dymphna.
'Glass Jar' is the audacious opus that opens Eye Contact.
Beginning with Takahiro Imamura's brief declaration, "I can hear
everything. It's everything time," the track slowly reveals
itself over the course of eleven minutes. Arguably an ambitious
first move, it's a bold statement of intent. 'MindKilla', on the
other hand, is a relatively succinct five-minute anthem that
exhibits Gang Gang Dance at their melodic best. Here, Lizzi
Bougatsos' vocals take centre stage; mixing lyrics borrowed from
'Hush Little Baby', Bougatsos' delivery lends a deeply sinister
edge to the traditional lullaby." (label info) in stock | UK|
