Seaside Girls
From Once Do It With Feeling


Just in time for the new album release in just a couple of days, it's time to grab an earful of Seaside Girls from post-punk evocateurs Candy Coffins. If you like bands like The Cure, Echo and the Bunnymen, Afghan Whigs, and You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead, (tap the links for eBay swag) then you'll love the musical prowess of this modern sounding group. Their first release in two years, Once Do It With Feeling offers a tantalising treatise of tracks of which we're lucky enough to have a taste with their recent video. Originating in 2018 from the idea that bands not on the radio were often better than the ones that were, Candy Coffins crystallised around the post-punk sound with the finest ingredients of like-minded musicians.




It begins with a vibrant swish of guitar that's bumped up by rhythm and bass. Drums pin the bars to the loose chugging riff as inflections hit the pulse. Piano and vocal join the music, upbeat melodies and a punchy delivery whack us with a draft of warming air that brings the imagination into being. A party atmosphere revels in the freeing spirit encapsulated within the composition. Hooks and catchy lines bounce from the rock n roll attitude and unbound feeling in every section. Seaside Girls is a great advert for summertime, a poignant soundtrack to memory, and a great sounding rock song.
