Guards release their new single, ‘Ready To Go’ on April 22. It precedes the release of their debut album ‘In Guards We Trust’ on 29th, through Partisan Records.
New York City’s Guards don’t mess around. Their debut album, ‘In Guards We Trust’ erupts from the speakers, a whirlwind of Phil Spector atmospherics, stomping drums, hazy spiralling guitar lines, and harmony-drenched psychedelic pop vocals. The songs harness big hooks and choruses with enough fuzz-pedal to keep things suitably lo-fi, but with more melodies in each song than many bands manage over the course of an album.
“Ready To Go” is a bold, hook-laden pop song drenched in psychedelic guitars. It reverberates with an effortlessness that makes Guards so arresting, and is another fine introduction to this new band.
‘In Guards We Trust’ shares an affinity with sixties pop-psychedelia, and evokes all the colour and imagery of that era. And it’s a record that resonates with the depth and intelligence of musicians that understand and, indeed, trust each other intrinsically.
