The Raveonettes share a brand new track entitled ‘Run Mascara Run’ premiered this week via Q Magazine. The track is the second release from the duo's RAVE-SOUND-OF-THE-MONTH playlist
where they’ll be uploading a freshly recorded track on the last Friday
of every month until December. The 'anti-album' will feature
a collection of new tracks that aren't bound by the constraints of
the format. A 12-month ride, potentially schizophrenic and disjointed,
potentially cohesive and related. Join the RAVE-SOUND-OF-THE-MONTH and subscribe to the playlist here.
The Raveonettes also announce the start of a new Pledge Music Campaign
where the first items to pledge for include CD and vinyl of the
forthcoming new album with many more exciting things to be added over
the coming months. Sign up for the Pledge Music Campaign at http://radi.al/TheRaveonettesPledge .
Sune Rose Wagner said of ‘Run Mascara Run’, “…'Run
Mascara Run' was partly inspired by a trip to the Bronx in NY with my
mentor Richard Gottehrer and the one and only Dion, of Dion And The
Belmonts fame. I remember distinctly Dion telling fantastic stories of
gang life, girl crushes and of course Doo Wop. Hip Hop of course has
always been a huge influence on everything I do so for the first time I
decided to add a spoken word, stream of consciousness, rap part to a
Raves tune. The notion of girls going off to war, instead of men has
been haunting me for quite some time, imagine if that was the case!
Images of the War in the Pacific, California surfer boys grieving the
loss of their girlfriends or wives, etc. What if bombs had fallen in
George Lucas’ American Graffiti? This is quite a schizo tune! Rave On
X…”
