The David & the Citizens song "Big chill" is a couple years old now, but the reason I'm posting it today is because it's on a new EP, coming out on march 7 via US label Friendly Fire Recordings. I know most of my Scandinavian readers should be already familiar with D&tC, but this EP is the band's first proper US release. Yes, frontman David Fridlund had his solo album released here last year, but it doesn't count - this is The Citizens I'm talking about. I've been a fan of these guys for awhile now (and even included them on my own m/store.php?item=39">"Reader's companion" compilation), but I have to say that I like them best in small doses. The albums are good, but it's on the EPs where they really shine. This new collection is perfect at a terse six songs: just enough to get you started without overwhelming you. It's hard to take a band with a long discography like D&tC and distill it down to a manageable size, but FF did a wonderful job. This particular song I'm posting today is one of my favorites. Not only because of matti from the Bear Quartet's haunting guest vocals, but also because of the excellent video from Anders Weberg of Recycled Image Studio (viewable me.duplo.org/~shaw/weberg/big_chill.wmv" target=_blank>here). "A funny thing about the video," says Anders, "is that It was aired like once and then pulled back because apparently it was ok to sing the word "bullshit" but when the subtitle said it .. it wasn't .. at least thats the reason we got from the network .. no comment." Anders has also been kind enough to provide a link to the previously unseen director's cut of said video: me.duplo.org/~shaw/weberg/big_chill_dircut.wmv" target=_blank>[click here]
Good stuff - be sure to check it out.
