The Black Seeds - Pippy Pip
The long awaited follow up to 2008's Solid Ground, Dust and Dirt marks a new chapter for the multi platinum selling Wellington band whose fan base has spread around the world in recent years.
Self recorded and produced in their Wellington studio, the 13-track album introduces new sounds and styles not heard on previous releases whilst retaining the trademark sound that has seen the band remain one of New Zealand's premiere acts for the past decade.
''Working in our own studio gave us the freedom to get the best out of ourselves over a longer period of time, and to trial new techniques and tones with Mike Fabulous at the controls'' says singer/guitarist Barnaby Weir.
Ahead of the album release next Monday, Stuff is presenting six of the songs with the band telling us how the track came about.
We start with the first single from the album, Pippy Pip.
Next Thursday we will have Mike Fabulous here for a live chat. If there's something you always wanted to know of the Black Seeds, send an email to entertainment@stuff.co.nz
Dust And Dirt will be available from all good retailers on digital, CD, plus limited edition heavy weight 12'' double gatefold vinyl.
