Things that make No Action purr, of late, include this from Austin's Harlem. Following the thrash n' roll path trod most recently by the likes of The Soft Pack and Black Lips, Harlem take bedroom garage to new depths of simplicity. No bad thing that, as Friendly Ghost is by a stretch the most heart thumpingly exhilirating thing I've heard this year.
After infinitessimal listens it still hasn't got old and makes each day a little bit better. New album Hippies is out on Matador on April 6th, containing the equally superb Gay Human Bones and Spray Paint. With the band touring the US until mid-May a cross-Atlantic summer jaunt must surely be on the cards.
