New Single ("Frontline"), Album ("Daylight"), and US Tour from The Selecter

(by Steve Shafer)

The Selecter with Pauline Black and Arthur "Gaps" Hendrickson have just released the winning new digital single "Frontline" to promote their upcoming album Daylight, which will be issued on October 6, 2017. 

Picking up where the powerful "Ghost Town"-like "Breakdown" left off (which is from their recent Subculture album, read The Duff Guide to Ska review here), the wildly catchy "Frontline" is critical of our smartphone/social media addicted society, where we have significantly more access to information and each other than ever before in the history of humanity, but actually seem to be increasingly disconnected, numb, and apathetic as a result. "Frontline's" reference to the extrajudicial/racial police killing of Eric Garner makes it also a call for real, in-person protesting and organizing for social justice and change--not Facebook posts that float without impact in the ether of cyberspace.

"Frontline, out on the street
Frontline, out on the street

Don't get me started
I'm all in a rush
You want to push me
Under a bus

I'm feeling restless
I need to believe
In something more
Than I want to stay free

My mind is full
My heart is empty
It's hard to live
In a world of plenty

The more I see
The less I feel
You sell me dreams
But they're not real

Frontline, out on the street
Frontline, out on the street

I feel a hunger
A hunger in me
I saw a man
Pushed off his feet

He tried to be
All he could be
He shouted out
"Now, I can't breathe!"

My mind is full
My heart is empty
It's hard to live
In a world of plenty

The more I see
The less I feel
You sell me dreams
But they're not real

Frontline, out on the street
Frontline, out on the street

I'm nobody's, nobody's hashtag
Ever the mighty shall fall
I'm nobody's, nobody's hashtag
Nobody's hashtag at all"

+ + + +

The Selecter's "Frontline" is available from these digital retailers (and it would make a great 7" vinyl single...):

iTunes - http://po.st/frontlineitunes
Amazon - http://po.st/frontlineamazon
Spotify - http://po.st/frontlinespotify

+ + + + 

The Selecter will be touring the USA and Canada this August (see dates and venues above in the image). The NYC show also features openers Rude Boy George (who also are playing the Fairfield, CT date) and The Pandemics. If The Selecter are coming anywhere near you, make sure to catch their performance--they're amazingly good these days (here's my write-up of their show in NYC last fall as proof).

Lonely Atom Records Lauches Indiegogo Campaign for Series of Split Single Releases!

To fund this project, the label has been booking mixed-genre concerts to showcase awesome local and independent music on Long Island (roughly one a month), and have plans to expand into NYC in early 2016.

Lonely Atom Records, a new artist run/artist motivated record label, has launched an Indiegogo campaign to kick off their inaugural series of 7" records, Radical Chemicals.

Radical Chemicals is a six (6) 7" split singles record series pressed on colored vinyl featuring some of the best up-and-coming bands from the NYC/tristate area.

The label is looking to raise money to cover some of their startup costs to make deposits on materials and pressing the first volume in the series. Having spent over a year researching/prepping their process, the label hopes to keep the costs for listeners low by using a network of DIY visual artists/craftspeople, and upfront costs for bands participating to $0 out of pocket for this project from tracking through pressing (which is the whole point!).

The bands signed for this project so far include:

The Pandemics
InCircles
American Pinup
Karikatura

More TBA as the project continues.

To encourage people to support this endeavor, Lonely Atom Records is offering a wide variety of rewards at different pledge tiers. Tons of stuff ranging from copies of their debut release in the series (a split single between The Pandemics and InCircles) to t-shirts, limited edition picture discs and more. One package even includes admission to every concert the label books between the end of the pledge drive and New Year's Eve, 2020.

The label knows that their target of $3,600 won't cover the entire series (projected cost of just the records and packaging are well over $10K), but is only seeking costs to get them started on deposits with visual artists and materials (and the rewards of course!). You can find more info at www.lonelyatomrecords.com.
