DAVID GILMOUR Announces TOUR Dates In Support Of His Upcoming Album ‘LUCK AND STRANGE’
13 May 2024
New Uncut issue, more info here
A couple of weeks ago former Pink Floyd guitarist DAVID GILMOUR,
aged 78 now, announced a new solo album, his fifth, baptized LUCK
AND STRANGE.
It’ll land on Earth on September 6 via Sony Music.
The 8-track album is Gilmour’s first album of new material
in nine years since his Rattle That Lock full length.
Artwork and photography by legend Anton Corbijn.
The majority of the album’s lyrics have been composed by Polly Samson,
Gilmour’s co-writer and collaborator for the past thirty years.
“It’s written from the point of view of being older; mortality is the constant.”
Along with the news came the first new track, titled Piper’s Call. A both gentle and
guitar-driven piece that brings that iconic band Pink Floyd, in the late 70s era, to mind.
.
Just now Gilmour revealed in a press statement that he’ll take the road to promote
the upcoming longplayer in London, Rome, LA and New York (probably more dates TBA).

DOWN THE LEES – Canadian High-Voltage Trio Return With Their New Hectic 7-Track Roller Coaster EP ‘DIRT’
13 May 2024
Band: DOWN THE LEES
Who: The post-rock noise project of seasoned Canadian singer/songwriter/guitarist
Laura Lee Schultz. DTL released 3 albums, so far. Their towering 2019 debut titled Bury
The Sun still is my aural favourite. It was recorded with Chicago‘s legendary noise expert Steve Albini who passed away last week, only 61. Sad, really sad loss.
New EP: DIRT
“Bewitching tracks in their respective rights, the songs showcase the band’s
broad sonic strengths and highlight their range and versatility. Recorded and
mixed by Jesse Gander “
EP artwork by Mirabelle Van de Put
TUTV: Backed by a merciless bass/drums tandem LL Schultz does again what
she and her band do best. Building up a sonic fever, slowly but surely, up and
down, forth and back, left and right, until the accumulation of volcanic emotions
erupts with a colossal amount of deafening decibels sending shivers down your
spine. A hectic roller coaster that turns your ears’ perception upside down
Schultz‘s voice stars throughout the 28 minutes of thunderous mood swings.
Her compassionate timbre and high-octane tone causes goosebumps, and all
around this commanding trio has a hair-raising impact. Sometimes I wonder if
DTL wants to scrape the sky above, or challenge hell down below.

‘Douse’ and ‘Dead Over’ were the singles for a obvious reasons. Two standout
tour-de-force accomplishments. Both deserve a gold medal (yep, the Olympic
Games are nearing).
Another remarkable feat is closer ‘Since La Vie En Rose’. I would never expect a tribute
to the iconic French chansonier Edith Piaf (1915-1963). Thanks to my parents I discovered the flamboyant, turbulent, emotional and artistic coeur-et-âme honesty of Piaf. And why do I love DTL? For their own way of flamboyant, turbulent, emotional and artistic heart-and-soul honesty. So this tribute isn’t a real surprise after all, it’s only about a difference in musical approach.
