RAINBOW ARABIA
SILVER HANDS + DRAB MAJESTY
RAINBOW ARABIA make their long-overdue return to Part Time Punks to unveil a brand new barrage of songs from their forthcoming new LP, "FM Sushi", revealing a new direction for the band, heading into cosmic synth space... Inspired by the purchase of a Lebanese synthesizer playing microtonal scales and lo-fi Eastern drum patterns, the band's fusion of synthpop and psychedelic tribal beats have garnered acclaim from Pitchfork, The Fader, XLR8R and the NME since their debut in 2008. "FM Sus i" won't be released until later this spring, but the band will be playing it in its entirety this Sunday, so you will be the the very first to hear it...

SILVER HANDS.
SILVER HANDS are a brand new synth-based band fronted by Elizabeth Wight of Love Grenades. At times sounding like Julee Cruise's tracks from the Twin Peaks soundtrack, on other tracks, tapping into the spacey textures of cosmic synth sounds and the hypnotic dance drones of Chris & Cosey. Meditative, hypnotic and utterly alluring.

DRAB MAJESTY.
Ariel Pink meets Fad Gadget meets Ziggy Stardust meets Genesis P-Orridge making lo-fi darkwave dreampop post-psychedelia occult-style shoegaze on cassettes (in his bedroom). This is DRAB MAJESTY. Behold, thee Majesty, and not drab at all.
