EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: The Gay Blades - Hey She Say + O Shot (Black Jesuses Remix feat. Ant Stone)

The Gay Blades’ “Hey She Say” sounds like Ted Leo’s mod miming if dude didn’t listen to so much Madness. Instead of some ska backbeat and bass winding, The Gay Blades shoot straight for the title of Riff Champions, unwinding their tune with some pasty all-over-the-place shredding. The New York duo are releasing their debut album Ghosts today through Triple Crown (buy that here), and in celebration the RCRD LBL signees have given us two exclusive tracks, “Hey She Say” and a rap take on “O Shot” from Red Bank, NJ’s The Black Jesuses and Ant Stone. That one is all gospel choir samples and girthy organ, like Kanye messing with some industrial music or something (hey, it could totally happen…there are 808s And Heartbreak all over Pretty Hate Machine.)

Sounds like: Ted Leo & Pharmacists, Howlies, El-P
