Astral Brain – Five Thousand Miles

Silly early Christmas head on me thinking this was a cover of the Pretenders song ‘2000 Miles’ – a full three thousand too many too. And a whole lot better too because it offers a gorgeous Stereolab stars-in-the-night-sky vista that infers a psychedelic inspired imagination. Broadcast are a very close relation too, was almost singing ‘Before We Begin’ in tandem. Makes for a glorious apparition all told, lithe vocals and a chorus so colourful it could be what we need in these dark winter days. Joyful and triumphant stuff from Sweden’s (Einar Ekström and Siri Af Burén) Astral Brain. KH

    You didn’t mention it here, but Astral Brain is a new outfit from members of Le Futur Pompiste. If you’re not familiar, I recommend giving them a listen.
