ELLiS·D announces second EP Spill set for release via Crafting Room Recordings on 21st March. To accompany the news Brighton goth-punk ELLiS·D shares motorik-glam new single ‘Drifting’. An explosion of whiplash riffs, psychedelic break downs, false endings and rip-roaring returns, ‘Drifting’ distills the essence of ELLiS·D’s “exhilarating” (Far Out) live show. Sharing more on the track, ELLiS·D (real name Ellis Dickson) says:
“’Drifting’ is by far my favourite track to play live. It has been through a fair few iterations, gets everyone going and always ends up going somewhere slightly different with each performance.”
‘Drifting’ is the closing track of ELLiS·D’s upcoming Spill EP, which promises a seven song jetstream of rocket-fuelled, goth-tinged glam-punk, infested with 21st century paranoia. ELLiS·D expands on the EP:
“The Spill EP is a not so subtle expression of conflict between personality and character. An uneasy alliance of nervous apprehension and joyful abandon. Throwing myself dramatically onto the funeral pyre one moment, only to get up and frantically twist my limbs about the next.”
ELLiS·D will launch the EP in London, with a special in-store performance at Camberwell’s Dash The Henge on 21 March.
