RELEASE DATE

LP version. In 2015, London-based
Bromide
got their electric shoes back on with new bass player
Hugo Wilkinson
joining long-term collaborators, singer-guitarist
Simon Berridge
, and drummer
Ed Lush
. Again, stuffed full of pop delights struggling to reach the three-minute mark -- such as "Two Song Slot", the story of a disastrous open-mic encounter turning into a last-minute victory and "Tale To Tell", a conscience-pricked near perfect example of the Bromide sound written in the studio while recording -- the album also sees the band begin to stretch their wings a bit. "Magic Coins" has an unexpected almost drum and bass inspired rhythm track while title track "I Woke Up" is a six-minute
Doors
ian odyssey. Elsewhere
Patti Smith
's "Dancing Barefoot" is given a thorough work out, plus there are contributions from the rhythm section with Lush writing the music for both "I'll Never Learn" and "Always Now", while Wilkinson provides a breath of fresh air in proceedings with the instrumental "Futurist Shore Leave". With
I Woke Up
, Bromide have firmly fixed the songwriter onto the band and vice-a-versa. As one recent twitter live review summed up "
They rock hard but the tunes come first: like
Elvis Costello
fronting
Dinosaur Jr
". Ain't gonna argue with that.
