Tuesday Bears: New Belle & Sebastian - Write About Love

After four years since Glasgow's best band (I can't name any other ones right now), Belle & Sebastian released The Life Pursuit, listeners finally have something new from the group not to the tune of God Help the Girl. so for those of you who will not stop your insistent complaining about the lack of "literary-centric, British indie pop," well, here you go.

B&S's (heh) new album Write About Love is due out October 11, via Matador. You can grab the title-track below.

Monday; God Help the Girl Video

Following up last Friday's post of God Help the Girl's single "Come Monday Night," the Stuart Murdoch brain-child already has released a video to support it. The group's principle voice Catherine Ireton gleams in a terric monochrone back-drop, giving a light sheer to her alarming beauty.

Fellow God Help the Girl co-singers Celia Garcia and Alex Klobuk shine as well, supporting Ireton's misty-eyed vocals. The only question I have is the sitcom-ish lead for the video into the song. Regardless, the product is beautiful. God Help the Girl's self-titled album is out June 23 on Matador Records, but you can pre-order your copy here.

God Help the Girl

Early last month information regarding Belle & Sebastian frontman Stuart Murdoch's side-project God Help the Girl was released. Yesterday I got a first listen to the album's single "Come Monday Night" from the album before its scheduled June 22 release from Matador via The Needle Drop.

Fellow Scotland native Catherine Ireton sets the very Belle & Sebastian - esque vocals through an array of orchestral pieces that swell the aching voice of the black-haired Ireton. You can grab the official MP3 via God Help the Girl's sign-up, or just grab your copy below.
