James Arthur’s discography is impressive, to say the least. Dude has worked with Jeffrey Evans, Jay Reatard and Alicja Trout, Darin Lin Wood, Steve Pallow, etc. His self-titled debut album (released on Australian label Aarght! a couple years back) absolutely ruled. This 7” is no different: idiosyncratic sound effects—spooky as hell—with James’ great, heavily phased guitar lines on top. The single track is split between the two sides. Don’t know what else to tell you except that whenever Mr. Arthur releases a record, I always buy it immediately.
