Aircooled

About

Aircooled return with a new single and album of disco-fuelled locked grooves,

rock swagger and glittered poise but with an expanded palette that brings

vocals to the fore for the first time. The extended psychomotorik traits are still

very much part of the picture but the band have sidestepped into songsmithing

with apparent ease and explosive results.

In a year that included sell-out shows at The Lexington - Islington, The Trades -Hebden Bridge and The Brixton Windmill, a stint opening for Suede on tour and

the release (and repress) of their debut LP St Leopards, Aircooled found time in

their studios in St Leonards on Sea, where they live, to write, record and

produce Eat The Gold, a set of winning, infectious tunes that, while neatly

avoiding resting on the laurels of their initial success, ignites with all the energy

of a band at the peak of their power. From the super solid, relentless grind of

Katharine and Justin’s stainless steel rhythm section to the twin-voices-as-one

vocals from Riz and Ollie and the psyched-out riffing, wig-out guitars and

synthesizers this is mirror ball disco funk rock from a band that’s clearly and

unashamedly having a very good time.

Riz Maslen (Neotropic) - vocals, keys, flute

Katherine Wallinger (The Wedding Present, Viv Albertine) - bass

Oliver Cherer (Miki Berenyi Trio, Gilroy Mere) - guitars, keys, vocals
