A Sunny Day in Glasgow: "Failure" (MP3)

6:36 p.m. · August 28, 2009 · by Matthew Richardson

Ambient noise-poppers A Sunny Day in Glasgow are about to release their sophomore LP, Ashes Grammar, next month, and "Failure" is the second advance track from that album. The title prepares you to settle in for a gloomy, self-pitying mess, but "Failure" isn't that at all. Instead, the song is a wondrously busy, propulsive mess that sounds a lot closer to WIN.

Ashes Grammar is out Sept. 1 on iTunes and Sept. 15 elsewhere, on Mis Ojos Discos.
