The Sides And In Between - Gringo Star
Atlanta, GA psych-rockers Gringo Star have premiered the visuals for their infectious new single, Rotten. I am loving this song so much! Great nostalgic rock tune with a psychedelic finish! If you're into The Kinks, Tame Impala and The Shins, than you'll love this tune! Gringo Star’s Nick Furglueles said,
‘Rotten' to me, is about not letting societal standards prevent you from doing or expressing how you want and not waiting till it's too late to do what you love. It's about an establishment designed to keep people in check, and dismantling that establishment.



Rotten is taken from Gringo Star's new album, The Sides And In Between, which will be released on August 26th via Nevado Music. Gringo Star are insouciant explorers, tossing the paddles overboard and drifting on the currents of their lackadaisical curiosity across a rippling sonic ocean, out to the far edges of rock & roll. Shots pulsing from a vintage Leslie speaker, their guitars, keys and vocals create the psychoactive ingredients of their echo-slathered, doo-wop-indebted indie gems; psychedelic garage bangers, gritty R&B shuffles and spaghetti western weirdness. Taking cues from Santo & Johnny, The Stooges, Ritchie Valens, Marc Bolan, Percy Faith, Sam Cooke, the men working on the chain gang—uh! ah!—they’re all here, their electric ghosts reaching across time, tapping Gringo Star on the shoulder like the crossroads devil to Robert Johnson, bestowing secrets, passing torches.
