New Simian Mobile Disco – Audacity of Huge

 Temporary Pleasure might be under four months away from release (14th August) but SMD are sharing the infectious first single ‘Audacity of Huge’ which features Chris Keating of Yeasayer dropping pop culture references all over the shop.

It reminds me of Jesse Rose’s ‘Forget My Name’ a little bit.

Temporary Pleasure also features guest turns from The Gossip’s Beth Ditto, Hot Chip’s Alexis Taylor, Jamie Lidell, Young Fathers, Telepathe and Gruff Rhys.

Tracklisting:
1) Cream Dream (featuring Gruff Rhys)
2) Audacity of Huge (featuring Chris Keating)
3) 10000 Horses Can’t Be Wrong
4) Cruel Intentions (featuring Beth Ditto)
5) Off The Map (featuring Jamie Lidell)
6) Synthesise
7) Bad Blood (featuring Alexis Taylor)
8) Turn Up The Dial (featuring Young Fathers)
9) Ambulance
10) Pinball (featuring Telepathe)
