New Born 04:57
Want the story. Should be larger than life Or you’d be passed on by and all And all that you have built up in time Be less than technicolor Oh you may think that what matters is size When we are minuscule and all And all that you have seen with your eyes A dance of shadow puppets Oooo And our true face only seen with your heart Oooo Think it’s over when it’s only the start We’re waking up inside No longer afraid Weed out the bullshit until we find our grace Aim our light outside No no longer torn Live and we die so that we’ll be newly born Oooo And our true face only seen with your heart Oooo Think it’s over when it’s only the start

Overdrive 04:35
Here we go, reeling along White gloves, trippin’ doze Move toward you, then beyond you Wish the world away, world away On your mark now, keeping time Must stay on your toes Bite the bullet, hoping we can Kiss the world away, world away You see, now the time is right There’s no drug to fix this one, no You see, got to slow things down Put a brake on problems old, we’ve We’ve running on null Running on what we’ve borrowed Step ahead then two behind Always wondering how it could’ve been Had the cards been better dealt to me Fail to risk at all Log another day, another day Road I want is right ahead of me All along the sights I’d never see Had I blinders on And let them show the way You’ve been running double time With all gears locked in overdrive And you’ve been talking out both sides But there’s one thing, one thing You’ve been running double time All gears locked in overdrive You’ve been talking out both sides But there’s one thing, one thing You see, now the time is right You see, got to slow things down And kiss the world away We’re running on null Running on what we’ve borrowed Step ahead then two behind now Running on null Running on what we’ve stolen Dated mark for humankind, no Always wondering how it could’ve been Had the cards been better dealt to me Fail to risk at all Mark another day, another day credits

about

"For all the things that were concealed behind the iron curtain, one very cool sonic phenomenon has emerged - now called Sounds of Sputnik, the world is a slightly better place thanks to their musings. Very pleased to be involved in this project" - Graham Bonnar (Swervedriver, Brian Jonestown Massacre)


Russia's Sounds of Sputnik has released 'New Born', their debut album with Ummagma through hallmark U.S. shoegaze label Moon Sounds Records.

The 'New Born' LP presents a palette of ethereal guitar, powerful drums, lush bass, and clever guitars, topped off with gossamer female vocals. Sounds of Sputnik paired up with Canadian-Ukrainian dreampop duo Ummagma to co-write, produce, and record this album. Ummagma’s Shauna McLarnon and Alexx Kretov also both contribute stunning vocals.

Rooted in a shared love of melodic dream pop, post-rock and shoegaze, both Sounds of Sputnik and Ummagma bring their own influences from Lush, Curve, Cocteau Twins and My Bloody Valentine, together with Hammock, Jesus & Mary Chain and The Twilight Sad to create briliant “dream noise”.
 
The 'New Born' LP also features contributions by several legendary guests: drummer Graham Bonnar (Swervedriver/ Brian Jonestown Massacre) on ‘Overdrive’, and remixes by Malcolm Holmes (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark), psych rock producer Fran Ashcroft (Damon Albarn, Lords of Acid), Russian producers Morozov and Oleg Mezherovsky, and Brazil’s Mind Movies.

This release meets Cancom CANADIAN CONTENT requirements.
