Noir pop specialists Psykobilly return to Aldora Britain Records with a brand new single, 'Long Time Dead', from their upcoming studio album, I Hate Psykobilly Vol. 1, due out later this year. Psykobilly is a collaborative project between Bill Newton and Phil and Isabelle Sorrell at Caretaker Studios.
'Long Time Dead' is quintessential Psykobilly, but also sees the project evolve from previous outings. After two years away from the spotlight, there is a directness to this new track. Centering around Bill and Isabelle's co-lead vocal, building upon the solid backing of producer Phil, it grows as if the soundtrack of a post-apocalyptic landscape. It stays true to the noir and darkly minded sensibilities of Psykobilly, inviting listening into a morbid world, but there is beauty in that sound too. At times, 'Long Time Dead' is a brilliantly uneasy and disturbing listen, a true reflection of modern times and modern ways.
For fans of T. Rex, David Bowie, Scott Walker, Magazine, and Morrissey.
Bill, Psykobilly: "The album is the usual eclectic mix of dark pop, 80s flavoured synth, ballads to make your heart sore, and dirty rock and roll. It’s been two years in the making and it is the best thing Psykobilly has released to date."

Although I do agree I'd prefer more focus on the IRS era, this is a really solid collection of covers that delivers some unique takes. Totally inspired me to go back and listen to the original albums as well. Jean-Paul DuQuette
