"Like Peter Murphy fronting Future Days era Can"
- Sean Kitching, Music Writer for Quietus
As a precursor to a mini album penciled for November 2024, the Hastings six (or 7 or 5, or 4 or 3) piece have recorded two tracks of psych jazz infused post punk for POTL's series of limited edition Bendy 7"s.
It's a two song invitation to the inner thoughts of lost souls and hopeful monsters. BLACK JAGUAR “An outlaw song about joy riding and the search for graves of country ancestors.” flipped with BRIGHT STAIRCASE with its cornet led build is " about return, redemption and transformation in the Santa Cruz mountains.”
We first saw Column 258 one evening last summer, playing a roof top gig above the up + coming “St Andrews Mews” in Hastings town centre. What an unexpected joy it was too. “The ghost of Ian Curtis” vocal delivery floating amidst a mongrel mix of Can and Happy Mondays.
