This week’s free download single at iTunes Australia is Sydney-based Starky: “Is this how it ends?” It’s from Starky’s self-titled EP.
Beau Cassidy, Nick Neal and Saul Foster recorded their second album in Blaenpant, an 18th century Georgian mansion in Wales. All their tracks were recorded through a Korg MS-20, a vintage hand patchable synthesiser. After the recording they were joined by new members Johnny Wilson and Peter Farley.
On their site their editorial review says, “The sonic complexity of the record is deceiving, realistically each track consists of only drums, bass, two guitars, keyboards and voice but somehow the band have created an album that sounds like God talking.”
The Starky ecard features two videos for “Is this how it ends?” – the conventional and the ‘creepy’ coffin versions.
