Night Gnomes: Purple and Yellow Vinyl LP
Release date: 5 August, 2022
The track is a riffy monster that delivers a much-welcome Black Sabbath- style slap to the head. Itâs big, shiny, sleek and irresistible. Itâs Psychedelic Porn Crumpets giving their best and Jack McEwan the bandâs fearless leader has the battle scars from the four-second harmonica solo to prove it. âI hadnât blown the harmonica in fve years. It was just sitting on my desk,â he recalls. âThe frst thing I did was suck in all this dust, and I couldnât talk for like a day. Afterwards, the rest of the band was like, âYou have to scrap that. Itâs so cheesy.â Anyone under 30 hates it, but it has the dad-rock vibe, so I kept it in.â
That devil-may-care spirit is present on each and every song on Night Gnomes. With guitarist Luke Parish, drummer Danny Caddy, bassist Wayon Billondana and multi- instrumentalist Chris Young by his side, McEwan bunkered down in his home studio, creating a sonic pastiche that almost sounds like turning the dial on a temperamental old radio every few minutes.
