Le Galaxie release their new EP, Fade Forever, into the world tomorrow and they’re throwing a launch party for the sparkly white vinyl bursting with disco bangers and dance-floor tearjerkers in the Button Factory on Saturday night. Special guests Sleep Thieves, Adultrock, Ships and Nanu Nanu are also set to work up a sweat. There are more details about the gig here, as well as a stream of the EP over on Nialler9.
In anticipation of the launch, we’ve got the band to put together a selection of 11 songs for us. We’ll let them explain what it’s all about:
When your emotions get too much, when your blazer sleeves will roll up no more, when your wicker slip-ons have all but disintegrated on your sock-less feet, when your woman weeps as she tells you that you’re a living on the edge, when your digital watch is all totally fucked up. You need the car. You need the city. You need the night. YOU NEED TO NIGHT DRIVE…
