The dreamy Philadelphia swirl-pop outfit A Sunny Day In Glasgow put out the record I most often cited as "most overlooked" last year with Ashes Grammar, a 22-track portrait full of soft vocals floating in lush soundscapes and shifting rhythms, stitched together by scene-setting, gauzy, often synthetic interstitials. It requires a full listening, but is worth it. Despite a list-season reappraisal that brought them a little more notice, it still sits on the under-appreciated side of things. Maybe Ashes hasn't gone as far because it is a true album at a time when blogs (yes, like this one) have sights set on "key tracks." (Which, "Failure"btw.) So the band announcing a quicktime followup to last year's LP with the forthcoming EP Nitetime Rainbows is great news in terms of timing (capitalizing on year-end movement) and in terms of offering a manageable amount of new material (three previously unreleased tracks, in addition to the title cut which comes from Ashes and its three remixes by various artists). "So Bloody, So Tight" is one of the new ones, and considerably brighter (or as the band put it, "more hopeful") than what we're used to hearing from them. In turn, the video is much goofier than anything we'd expect from them. Continue reading A Sunny Day In Glasgow "So Bloody, So Tight" Video, Fleetwood Mac Cover...
