Bad Cop‘s new video for “I’m In Lust With You” (taken off their debut album Harvest the Beast) premiered today on PopMatters:
Also up on PopMatters is a demo version of a new song “Wet Lips”, originally debut on Subba Cultcha. The final version of this song will be available on a 7″ released this summer… and guess who will be releasing the 7″? That’s right.* Don’t turn the dial!
Culture Bully says:
“Wet Lips” is sloppy, slightly spacey and fully raging, but from the sound of things the demo doesn’t compare to the version of the track which will be released on the 7″.
