Broken Bells Good Luck / Shelter

Seven inch vinyl pressing. Much like last year's "as adventurous as always" (Stereogum) standalone single "Shelter," "Good Luck" bears the unmistakable sonic signature of Broken Bells unveiled on 2010's eponymous debut and 2014's After The Disco-in other words, the instantly recognizable audible fingerprints of both Mercer and Burton melded into something entirely other. As with neo-classic Broken Bells tracks including "The High Road" and "Holding On For Life," "Good Luck" is completed by deceptively apocalyptic sonic and lyrical imagery that is actually more rooted in present day reality than any dystopian future.
