Snapped Ankles – Jonny Guitar Calling Gosta Berlin

The Best Light Is The Last Light is the new EP from woodland agitators Snapped Ankles, following their debut Leaf single ‘I Want My Minutes Back’ with something a little more substantial to get your teeth into. Since their move to the city, the woodwose have gorged on cinema and left this gleaming carcass. Released June 30th, this is the sound of the forest on your turntable.

Listen to motorik fuzz epic ‘Jonny Guitar Calling Gosta Berlin’ now. Its title is taken from Greta Garbo’s 1924 big screen debut The Saga of Gosta Berling, with the track drawing heavily on Jean-Luc Godard’s nightmarish Weekend, in which an excursion to the countryside ends in revolution, the collapse of bourgeois society and cannibalism. The circle of life.

Pre-order the EP on limited edition 12” or download from Bandcamp. There is also a free download of ‘Jonny Guitar…’ for those of you who like that sort of thing.

Tune into Marc Riley’s BBC 6 Music show tonight from 7pm to hear the wildmen in session.
