SAINT AGNES BRAND NEW VIDEO \u2013 \u2018A Beautiful Day For Murder\u2019 <\/p>\n
LABEL: ENERGY SNAKE RECORDS<\/p>\n
Cinematic psych outfit Saint Agnes have released their new single, \u2018A Beautiful Day for Murder\u2019 via visceral London Label Energy Snake Records. The track is a twisted ballad; a love song to death itself. \u2018It\u2019s the soundtrack to a dark and beautiful Western where Lana Del Ray stares down nick Cave in a saloon bar stand-off\u2019 says founding member Kitty Austen, who fronts the band with Jon Tufnell. After releasingtheir debut single as a duo and packing out The Sebright Arms in suitably raucous fashion, the pair return with a trademark slice of cinematic, Tarantino-style lushness.<\/p>\n
B-side \u2018Where the Lightning Strikes\u2019 is blues stomping, dirty rock n roll with psychedelic organs, screaming guitars and haunting harmonica. \u2018Imagine Ennio Morricone writing the score for a remake of Easy Rider.\u2019<\/p>\n
Jon and Kitty met whilst playing in their respective bands (The Lost Souls Club & Lola Colt) and immediately bonded over musical influences. Their onstage chemistry is palpable and they are now joined by Matt Devine and Ben Chernett, the no-nonsense bass and drums powerhouse who dress as sharply as The Bad Seeds.<\/p>\n
Saint Agnes are very much a DIY band and like fellow psych-collective Temples, record and produce their own music in their East London studio and have directed both upcoming music videos. <\/p>\n
‘The pair\u2019s raw chemistry proves as potent as ever as they dish out a grinding splurge of defiant rock n\u2019 roll’ Q<\/p>\n
