New Track: David Lynch “Bad The John Boy”

478

David Lynch has a new, very limited 12″ release coming out tomorrow, November 12th, on Sacred Bones! The record is being printed in 250 hand-numbered copies, with “letter-press and silk-screened wrap-around art”, and they are available from the label by mail only. The 12″ will include the mega-creepy track “Bad The John Boy“, as well as a Venetian Snares remix of Lynch’s cut The Big Dream, off his sophomore release of the same name. Recorded by Lynch with his producer Dean Hurley during The Big Dream sessions, Hurley says this of the track:

“It wasn’t really recorded with the LP in mind, but it was done around the end of last year when the bulk of the album was being made. It was earmarked for something else entirely, but that thing didn’t happen in a way that required the song… so up until now, it was ‘a song with no home'”.

Good to know “Bad The John Boy”‘s got a home, but I can’t imagine he’s stickin’ around too long, as this fella’s a real reprobate! The track slithers in with a slippery limp, and it brings with it a noxious yellow fog of beats and haunted basement ambience, to which Lynch adds his nightmarish vocal delivery, slurred with strange infernal resonances.
