King Garbage, with its contemporary take on American soul, returns today with a new single and a Josh Finck-directed video, “Busy On A Saturday Night.” The song is the latest song to be unveiled from their forthcoming album, Heavy Metal Greasy Love, which will be released on April 1 via Ipecac Recordings and is available to pre-order now here. Digital pre-orders include downloads of the new single “Busy On A Saturday Night” plus two additional pre-release singles, “Piper” and “Peanut Butter Kisses.”
“Busy On A Saturday Night,” which is available now on all streaming platforms, draws its inspiration from a magnet that was on the fridge of King Garbage’s Vic Dimotsis’s great grandmother. “It had a sweaty male stripper pictured on it and said, ‘Everything I want is either taken or busy on a Saturday night,’” laughs Vic. He adds, “Blurry as a memory on a slinky night out. A Tom Waits-inspired roadster awaits high high heels on a sure fire adventure. Losing articles of clothing to the magnet of the pavement, the band plays on through a duct from another world, and our eyes blur from both lust and disgust. Such motion seems still, as the accelerator and brakes lose meaning. A quiet lonely brunch awakens us from a distant stare.”
