Do you believe in Custard? Say it again… Do you believe in Custard? We sure do. Those lounge reclining soothsayers of the suburban interior. Raise your hands… and open the curtains to tales of the intimate, the awkward, and the everyday. Squeegee those windows, paste up that wallpaper, put the tea on, and discover bouts of pop and circumstance. Fertilise those cushioned lawns of pathos and humour. Open up that front gate to the new world opus of CUSTARD’s double album ‘Suburban Curtains’ out this spring.
First single MOLECULES COLLIDING wafts through the windows – with accompanying video as baked by jack of all trades band member Glenn Thompson.
“This is a love song. A long human relationship in three inscrutable verses and one equivocating bridge. Luckily the chorus is empowering in its embrace of contrasts of scale, and recognition of the echoes and repetition within physics and humanity. The finale is open ended, lyrically anticipatory and musically truncated. A study in contradiction and reflection.”
Joining Custard on this open the curtains tour will be special guests THE FAUVES and THE STRESS OF LEISURE – both also releasing sumptuous new albums this spring clean.
