6s & 7s release 'Choose The Sentinel Blooze'
25 June 2010
6s & 7s are set to release their debut album 6s & 7s Choose The Sentinel Blooze next Saturday 3 July 2010 through Love is My Velocity, with distribution via Fuse Music.
To celebrate, 6s & 7s will play a hometown album launch next Saturday 3 July at the Rosemount Hotel in North Perth, supported by The Painkillers, Split Seconds and Craig McElhinney.
Featuring the unique talents of Josh Fontaine, previously the frontman for Perth’s now-defunct The Stickfigures, 6s & 7s Choose the Sentinel Blooze contains reinventions of live favourites including the 2007 WAMi Song of the Year ‘Holidayz’ and ‘Kissing for Science’, and introduces a batch of amazing new songs.
A lo-fi epic stitching the ephemera of Panda Bear to the futuristic sadness of Grandaddy, 6s & 7s Choose the Sentinel Blooze features contributions from over 20 members of the Perth music community. The result is a record as quirky and grand as a hungover Pet Sounds.
Lyrically, the album documents the long nights and long summers of Fontaine’s life in Perth over the past decade, dotted with euphoric highs and crushing lows.
Formed in 2008, 6s & 7s have quickly risen through the Perth music ranks to become one of the best known and most frequently gigging pop bands in town. They have spent the last two years reacquainting audiences with the live power of Fontaine’s falsetto voice and fiery guitar, showcasing their new band line up featuring current and former members of New Rules for Boats, Superengine, Dom Mariani and the Majestic Kelp, the Burton Cool Suit and The Bank Holidays.
6s & 7s Choose the Sentinel Blooze will be available in stores on 3 July 2010, through Love Is My Velocity and distributed by Fuse Music Group. Don’t miss them launch the album in Perth next weekend.
