WILD BALBINA: Release a digital single for "Stay Alive" with a previously unreleased song as the B-side
After giving us all their energy on their recent 10” mini-LP, “Sisters Before Misters”, WILD BALBINA are giving us a digital single that highlights one of the most fantastic songs from said release. “Stay Alive” has a tremendously catchy chorus; it plays with echoes of ECHOBELLY, PIXIES, HUGGY BEAR, and SLEATER-KINNEY; and tops everything off with a big dose of electricity and urgency. The digital single’s B-side is a previously unreleased song called “Such A Jerk”, where the band from Vigo uses all of their riot attitude, intelligently intermixing it with C-86 sounds, and with the end of the song drown out into feedback and distortion. As irresistible and energetic as ever. And what’s still to come.
