Today, Cornish musician Benjamin Woods shares “Vista,” the final GOLDEN DREGS single from his forthcoming record, ‘On Grace & Dignity,’ out this Friday, Feb 10th.
Inspired by the Graham Green short story The Destructors, Woods blithely surveys the wanton abandon and recklessness of teenage boys burning down a house, “for no reason than to see the burning world.” Finely tuned with filigrees of guitar and skipping bass, ‘Vista’ echoes the nostalgia for his own childhood experiences as a curious teenager living in a place where very little goes on.

Lankum Announce Fourth Record 'False Lankum' - Share Brooding Single "Go Dig My Grave"
Dublin-based band Lankum present their fourth record, and third for Rough Trade, ‘False Lankum.’ 12 tracks, composed of 10 traditional songs and two originals, show the four-piece using a new palate to colour their sound in an increasingly experimental way, leaning into heavy drones and sonic distortion that imparts new intensity and beauty into each offering.
Today they’ve shared the menacing first single “Go Dig My Grave” with a gorgeous video by Peadar Gill (Hello, A24!)
From the start, the band planned for ‘False Lankum.’ to feel like a complete piece – a progression and a journey for the listener. “We wanted to create more contrast on the record so the light parts would be almost spiritual and the dark parts would be incredibly dark, even horror inducing,” they explain. ‘False Lankum.’ arrives on Standard Black and Limited Edition Clear Orange Double LP Vinyl, as well as CD.
