Los Angeles natives Midnight Movies will be following up their second full length LP, Lion The Girl, with a brand new EP titled Nights out digitally this March 11.
Midnight Movies expanded the neo-shoegaze movement on their aforementioned LP, and Nights aims to reinvent that sound with a new remixed, punk-electro urgency that is beautifully juxtaposed against frontwoman Gena Oliver’s wounded vocals. Furthermore, ostracized former Smashing Pumpking, James Iha, has provided percussion that is said to interject the album with a steady yet frenzied feel. The band's show-stopping rendition of "Nights in White Satin" (sung in French)—"Mes Reves Satin," with Olivier back behind the drum kit, was finally recorded due to popular demand and will be included on the Nights EP. Finally, both "Should Have Known" and "Stormy Eyes"— which originated in the Lion the Girl sessions but didn't make the final cut of the album—have landed on this new collection.
Again, you get Nights from digital music outlets this March 11.
