Githead is a British experimental pop super-group comprising Colin Newman of Wire on vocals and guitar, Malka Speigel and Max Franken of Minimal Concept on bass and drums and Robin Rimbaud of Scanner on guitar. But even more impressive than their lineup is Githead's smart, nuanced approach to pop songs and Colin Newman's continued exploration of his distinct melodic sense . Landing, Githead's third full-length album, expands their propulsive sound with the addition of droning, hypnotic textures and a more sophisticated production value. Making Githead's latest highly listenable and more than worthy of a free listen. Title track "Landing" and "Lightswimmer" are stand outs and a great place to start if you are new to Githead.
Landing is streaming in its entirety through November 9 here
