Video Nasties rise again with new single ‘Draw The Shades’


Following the release of their debut album ‘Dominion’ on APF Records last year,  Video Nasties are back with another slab of moral-panic inducing heaviness – the addiction inspired single ‘Draw The Shades’


With ‘Dominion’ selling out on vinyl, APF Records are repressing the album for release on 7th May. Limited to only 300 copies (150 Flaxen Lust / 150 Suspirium Pink), the reissue will include ‘Draw The Shades’ on a 70s retro style Flexi-disc. Bassist Rick Owen comments,‘We’re extremely excited about Draw The Shades. It’s our first single since the release of Dominion and we feel it picks up right where They Rise left off so it makes a perfect companion piece for the repress of the album. We decided to go down the same path with recording it ourselves, to make sure we really nailed the early 90s sound that we felt we captured so well with Dominion. At its crux, the song is about addiction. Whether that is blood, drugs or love… There is a need that has to be sated. ‘

Jess and The Ancient Ones show us their possessed Psychedelic Soul on “Love Zombi”, the second single from their forthcoming new album Vertigo! With organ-led swagger and a freak-beat to raise the dead and make them dance, “Love Zombi” is a graveyard smash.

Main-man songwriter/guitarist Thomas Corpse describes it perfectly when he says: “In this track one can maybe hear eerie echoes of funk lurking in the root. The feel of the middle part leans towards European old school horror movies”. “Love Zombi” is Jess and The Ancient Ones back to their creepy, catchy rocking best, live-wired and undead!
