Introducing the bewitching melancholy of Flip Top Head - the seven piece are laying down a marker on the alternative scene for effortlessly transitioning scintillating jazz tones and haunting vocals into an emphatic post-rock soundscape.
‘Seventh Bell Number’ is the Brighton collective’s debut single, out on 14th February on Blitzcat Records. Opening with an absurdist two-tone swagger, complete with crashes of brass, a shoegaze headiness persists in Flip Top Head’s orchestral message. The dementing caress of vocalist Bowie Bartlett's lyrics verse on inner turbulence, culpability and frustration over romantic confessions that can never be realised. It’s in a galvanic Brighton live scene that Flip Top Head have flourished, seeing them share stages with the likes of Honeyglaze, Malady and China Bears. To coincide with ‘Seventh Bell Number’ , the group set off on an eight-date UK tour, including a mouthwatering first night with Opus Kink and DEADLETTER. The song releases at the tour’s climax, on either side of a headline Windmill show with Porchlight and Mary & The Junkyard - finishing with a big homecoming at the Pipeline in Brighton.
