Noise Annoys: Rory Nellis & Philip Watts d'Alton, Neil Brogan, Problem Patterns and Jim Bob Noise Annoys: Stiff Little Fingers' Jake Burns on their big Belfast show What we do know for certain is that Runaway will be available on all major streaming platforms from August 25. "For the first time, I've written the songs on piano instead of guitar, so it's been an interesting change and I hope this song gives you a little insight into what to possibly expect." The 10 songs have been written for several years, but I've yet to record them and therefore can't provide a release date just yet. Richard elaborates: "Runaway will feature on an upcoming 10-track album self-titled Heliopause. Suck it and see at, where you will notice the song is tantalisingly described as "the first track from an upcoming album". Yes, the slow-building Runaway is but one banging remix away from being an actual hands in the air 'choon'. Sadly, it's not a re-interpretation of the Del Shannon classic: happily, all the 'classic' Heliopause hallmarks are present and correct in this all-new and original composition, from Richard's trademark heart-on-sleeve vocal (which, as ever, hits a sweet spot somewhere between Neil Young and Ben Gibbard) to the prevailing vibe of cathartic melancholia, while also expanding the project's sound in a more overtly electropop-based, keys-driven and (whisper it) dancefloor-friendly direction. There's also a cool video, which you can feast your eyes on below: I've seen Sam, Sophie and AJ playing live quite a few times over the past couple of years and they've been better on each occasion, both in terms of confidence and the sophistication of the songs being performed, while always retaining an inspiringly scrappy, 'let's just plug-in-and-play' vibe that makes them a tonic for all those poser bands out there.ĭysphurious now joins Toast Sandwich, Womansplain, STFU, Territory and Night In The Woods in the top drawer of the Gender Chores tune locker, all of which you can hear at. The wonderful "aaah-aaah" vocals in Dysphurious give off a gloriously shoegazey, RIDE-y vibe, a perfect counterpoint to the song's overriding punk rock fuzziness, as does a quiet, slinky mid-section which calls to mind the slow, sultry simmer of Anna Calvi or someone (there's some of this in their superb jangle-ballad Giz a Smile, too).
