about

Following two acclaimed single releases and Bobby Gillespie’s (Primal Scream) seal of approval, London’s Modern Guilt are pleased to announce the release of their first EP, ‘You’re Welcome’, on Friday 25 June 2021.

Hailed by tastemakers including John Kennedy (Radio X) and This Feeling as one of the ‘Best New Bands’, Modern Guilt are “breaking boundaries with their genre-defying sound” (The Other Side Reviews). Drawing inspiration from Garage Rock, Soul and Blues, Jaz (vocals/guitar), Andreas Podda (lead guitar), Scott Thomson (drums), Glyn Evans (keys/organs) and Dan Williams (bass) “are re-igniting and modernising their era and genre influences in a strong flame of colour” (Listen To Discover).

‘You’re Welcome’ showcases the band’s more obvious roots across five tracks in a refreshingly modern light, with additional nods to the likes of Psychedelia, Motown, Surf and early Hip-Hop. The tracks are anthemic, whilst subjectively dealing with love and mistakes. Lead singer Jaz notes his lyrics on the EP “are a coming to terms with who you are and how you’ve changed. It’s about pinpointing where we stand in our own lives when things start to shift.”

The EP has been crafted in collaboration with producer Mikey Buckley across multiple analogue studios, with artwork created by Edinburgh based Marinello Studio.

lyrics

Your Toronto soul, black boots trimmed with gold
If you don’t know how to feel,
I don’t wanna know

Your protest Lennon cut and cold New York denim,
If you got to ask,
May as well just let ‘em

Light fires in the dirt, go in the knees first I heard,
Paint up the truth
Wear your blue on blue

With your thunder snare, brick red shirt and dyed hair,
If ya can’t get the feel
You know i’ll never care.

CHORUS OOOooo

Jailbird suit, no stripes just plain blue,
Rustling cigarettes from the flat top roof,

Graffiti lives, washed away warehouse highs,
The bow-legged boatmen wanna
Cut you down to size,

Late 80’s soul, factory men not Warhol,
Cant get the feel?
I don’t wanna know.

CHORUS OOOooo

BRIDGE

Your Canadian Tux,
You’re running on good luck
And you don’t give a damn
Your Canadian Tux,
You’re running on good luck
And you don’t give a damn

Can’t get the feel, you know I’ll never care
