Time to get lubricated with debut from Girl One and the Grease Guns

Article written by Paul M - Feb 14, 2013

The latest release on Squirrel Records will be the debut 7" single from Girl One And The Grease Guns, which will be out 11th March.

Titled Driving Without Headlights (Once Again) and backed by (I'm a) Willing Receiver, it will be available on 7".

Here's what has been said about the release: "Driving Without Headlights (Once Again) is pure hook laden POP!! It wouldn't be out of place on The Human League's Dare album, Yazoo's Upstairs At Eric's, or Depeche Mode's Speak And Spell. Chugging along with a catchy keyboard riff, this one will get in your head and remain there. The flipside, (I'm A) Willing Receiver is something a little different. We're still in pop territory here, but it's not as straightforward as all that. Powered along on a drumbeat that is somewhat reminiscent of the classic single Warm Leatherette by The Normal, and with strange sounds and deliberately skewed vocals throughout, the whole thing explodes at the end in a cacophony of noise the likes of which we haven't heard around these parts since the days of The Manhattan Love Suicides."
