Release Notes:
'Dismal Results' is the debut single from London based
psychedelic shoe gazers The Firm. The product of a culmination
of a plethora of confusing juxtapositions, the band of over
two years attack their music and accompanying lyrics on a
number of fronts making their sound somewhat unique.
Consisting of Ross Liddle (Voice & Guitar), Chris Willsher
(Lead Guitar & Piano), Julia Sieradzki (Bass Guitar) and
Yameen Khan (Drums), the group combine here in the bands third
year with a cruising, sometimes morbidly melancholic shard of
fuzzy psychedelic rock. Produced by Matt Terry of The Enemy's
'We'll Live And Die In These Towns' fame, the bands 80's
influences pulse through, instantaneously recognisable in the
vocals of Ross Liddle who embodies the spirit of The Cult,
Suede and The Cure. Like Morrissey's twin brother, the
quivering naivety of Liddle's vocals rains through. It's a
sinister, monotonic version of Ricky Wilson in play, which
accompanied by the most energetic and explosive set of guitars
ever witnessed by man make for good times for all. Twinned
with 'Round The Rim' the singles b-side, 'Dismal Results' is
surely due the reverse treatment.
