After six successful albums with Supergrass (including the #1 debut ‘I Should Coco’), Gaz Coombes has announced that he will release second single ‘Simulator’ from his first ever solo album ‘Gaz Coombes Presents… Here Come The Bombs’ on July 23rd via Hot Fruit Recordings. You can check the brand new video out below.
Produced alongside Sam Williams, ‘Simulator’ follows the debut single ‘Hot Fruit’. ‘Here Come The Bombs’ represents a continuation of his day-to-day life in music, and was recorded at Coombes’s home studio and at Williams’s Temple Studio, both in Oxford. The album explores the unexpected whilst maintaining the famous love of melody that marked some of Supergrass’s finest moments.
Opening with the ethereally dreamy ‘Bombs’, the album reverberates with Coombes’s sonic experimentations: the exuberant ‘Break the Silence’ features pulsating grooves cut with distorted guitars, ‘Fanfare’ sees Coombes experimenting with rhythmic, near spoken vocals, while the closing track ‘Sleeping Giant’ finds his vocals drifting.
