Bis - Keep Your Darkness - [Vinyl]

Limited Edition 7" Single. As a teaser for the up-coming "The Anthology - 20 Years of Antiseptic Poetry", bis release a limited edition 7" vinyl/download of their brand new recording "Keep Your Darkness" backed with an cover of Susan Fassbender's UK 1981 minor hit, "Twilight Caf�", exclusive to this release. Recorded with the full live band, "Keep Your Darkness" carries some familiar bis influences, sounding like early Human League as played by Adam And The Ants with the signature triple-headed vocal assault. Fans will recognise the song from recent live shows, indeed it was widely considered the highlight of the band's set at the closing ceremonies of the Glasgow Commonwealth Games. On the flip is a raucous take on Susan Fassbender's classic "Twilight Cafe". Susan was an underrated and tragic figure, as evidenced by a recent Top Of The Pops 2 episode featuring the song. The caption read, "No-one seems to know anything about Susan....except Glasgow Indie-Pop stars, bis". It's a song the band have always loved, and finally their version sees the light of day. New material suggests a return to the guitar/synth/drum machine model of the early days, with the sonic element dialled back to POP with a twist. In other words, bis promise to keep their darkness.
