Naomi Baguley and Ben Lewis are Bruising. They're from Leeds and this, their first release, is a home-recorded introduction to what they're all about, to white fuzzy guitars with some scuzzy reverb and sublime vocals over the top.
Bruising formed late last year after singer and guitarist Naomi Baguley spotted Ben Lewis wearing a Perfect Pussy t-shirt in a Leeds nightclub. Bonding over a mutual love of all things fuzzy, they began messaging voice memos from their phones back and forth until, finally, they got together in the same room and started writing some songs. This is one of them. Self-recorded in their bedrooms in Hyde Park, Leeds, 'Can't You Feel' is pretty much the epitome of what Bruising want to do - fuzzy pop with big hooks, riddled with earworm guitar riffs and led by aloof-yet-infectious dream-clad vocals. 'Can't You Feel' is taken from the upcoming Beech Coma compilation, Vol. 3. Featuring exclusive new music from the likes of Jr., Thalassocracy and bare pale, the compilation will be released 9th March 2015 on ltd red cassette, t-shirt bundle and digital download - pre-order from http://beechcoma.bandcamp.com/. More details will be revealed soon.
This will be on the forthcoming Beech Coma compilation, volume 3, which you can get your early order in for via their bandcamp page.
