Taking influence from studio-scene psych, west coast jangle and baroque harmony pop, London's Green Seagull are back with a new 7" single. Having released four singles and two albums, mainly on the now defunct Mega Dodo label, their first release since 2020's blissed-out Cloud Cover LP sees the band adopt a harder, more urgent edge, aided and abetted by new guitarist Dan Davies (formerly of Wolf People). Kicking off with a echo-laden organ motif, ightning Girl' soon dissolves into a haunted garage rocker adorned with the celestial harmonies that have become the band's trademark. Flip side arbara' steers into late 60s swamp-rock territory, with a southern-fried groove and vocal lines that bring to mind the likes of Jackie Lomax and The Kinks.
