Not that Impose readers should really need a refresher on Montreal power-punk duo Solids—the band whose warm distortion-born scuzziness could sedate a wild animal—but they just released their second single, “Haze Away,” off the forthcoming Blame Confusion record (previously self-released in the Canadian motherland), and we felt like gushing a little more. People who've obsessed over early Guided by Voices song transitions will find themselves delightedly drawing parallels, among other emotional reactions this track illicits. They recently announced North American tour dates, so mark your calendars, and if you haven't already, listen to the interview we did with them in November when they were last in New York.
Blame Confusion, out February 18, can be preordered from Fat Possum Records.
