Birmingham newcomers Gans continue to tease their debut album with the release of new single ‘NIGHTWALKING‘. Debut album GOOD FOR THE SOUL arrives on September 19th via Peter Doherty’s Strap Originals label.
Throughout the release of these singles, GANS have set their stall out as a band with many different strings to their bow. A duo of borderless noise-makers with intensity at the core of what they do, on new single ‘NIGHTWALKING’ they continue to surprise, swerving away from the heated post-punk and darting electronics of former singles, and this time residing in the dusky, after-hours brooding of a world without definition.
Drummer and vocalist Euan Woodman expands: “‘NIGHTWALKING’ addresses that space between love, desire and lust. Love does not always have to be clean and pure – it’s not that simple and one-dimensional. It can be dark and cruel. It can be late night f******. Simple, selfish acts of love. We tried to write our version of a soul track with a dark twist and we deliberately made the recording warm and swing with brass sections from our pals in Ibibio Sound Machine. It was kinda like a Grand Theft Auto late night cruise with Marvin Gaye driving through the streets of Digbeth…. that was kinda the vibe we had in mind.”
