Fake Palms, the project helmed by\u00a0Toronto-based artist, Michael le Riche has shared his new single,\u00a0Visions<\/em>\u00a0the latest to be lifted from his new record,\u00a0‘Lemons’\u00a0which is set for release via\u00a0Hand Drawn Dracula on\u00a0September 16.\u00a0‘Lemons’\u00a0was announced last month with the first single,\u00a0Satellite<\/em><\/a> and\u00a0arrives as the third full-length from Fake Palms and reintroduces the project after a short break in which le Riche focused on his electro-synth project,\u00a0Sauna\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<\/em>it comes off the back of earlier releases that found support at\u00a0FADER, Stereogum, Vice, Brooklyn Vegan\u00a0and\u00a0Exclaim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The arch jangle of new single, Visions<\/em> evokes Lee Ranaldo linking up with the bubblegum-savvy early Wire while\u00a0finding le Riche tapping into some of his poppiest moments as a songwriter following his previous work as Fake Palms, as well as the soupy electronica of Sauna and art-rock of Darcys. The track erupts with slashing guitar and quickfire percussion which matches Michael’s vocals toe for toe. Speaking about the track, he says: “Visions is the sound of power chords and an overactive right arm. No more intricate, overly complex guitar parts or different time signatures. It\u2019s Buzzcocks or the Dead Boys at its core, angular and jangly. Musically, it’s the most direct thing I’ve ever done. No hiding behind walls of reverb, mutating time signatures, or vague lyrics.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
