St.
Christopher - Golden Blue
In
the past nearly 15 years St. Christopher has recorded for
a who's who of independent pop
labels: Sarah, Bus Stop, Vinyl Japan, Elefant, Slumberland,
and Caff Records, owned by St. Etienne's Bob Stanley. We're
pleased to be joining that company. Golden Blue, the band's
first studio recording since 1996, contains eleven songs,
including "Chemical King," which first appeared
on Parasol's Sweet Sixteen, Volume 1. The other ten songs
sound similarly melodic, and reminiscent of the literate
and often anthemic material of London Suede and Pulp. The
sole constant defining band member, Glenn Melia, wrote and
recorded all of the material between and around two weeklong
tours in the US. He is planning another East Coast trip in
support of Golden Blue. We've been excitedly waiting for
Glenn to deliver the finished songs, and are pleased to say
that Golden Blue is our favorite St. Christopher album yet. |
