It’s been a while since we heard from Vinny Adebisi and Rupert Bats’ side-project Speed of Snakes. Last June to be exact when ‘Arroway’ appeared.
Well, with the appearance of the electro-gleaming ‘Backbone of Night’ and its accompanying Stevie Russell-directed music video, McCreith and Morris are signalling the Speed Of Snakes album will be with us before the end of the year. The dystopian video features a cut cat, a cyborg hooker in revolt and the Speed Of Snakes members powerless to control their subject.
Meanwhile Adebisi Shank will launch their third album with two Dublin gigs this month.
