Praise for Big Special:
"They're not the sort of act you forget in a hurry" - Steve Lamacq, BBC6 Music
"Fantastic poetry, powerful songwriting and a texture of sound you’re just not going to hear any place else." - Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6 Music
Premiering on BBC6 Music’s Steve Lamacq last night, Big Special share new single ‘THIS HERE AIN’T WATER’. It’s a cathartic lament with no subtle edges - howling vocals leading into guitars and synths, held up by drums beaten like they owe someone money.
"It’s basically an inward sermon, when you’re stuck in your head egging yourself on about how rough times feel. It’s about media and politics. It’s about self-medication. It’s about a lack of options. It’s about the thinning of the common understanding between the social classes of England, and feeling stuck, watching it all happen."
